Legislator-Zusammenfassung

KI-generiert

The Supreme Court dismissed the apartment owners' claim for damages against the developer regarding a building defect discovered over ten years after completion. The developer argued the claim was time-barred under the general limitation period, while the owners contended the defect was latent and the limitation period had not yet expired. The court ruled that the general limitation period had elapsed before the owners could establish the defect, thereby barring their right to compensation.

Legislator-Regeste

Vanh 1 §; The general limitation period for claiming damages for latent building defects expires ten years after the completion of the building, barring claims if the defect is not discovered within that timeframe.

Volltext

A oli rakennuttanut rakennusliike B:llä perustamalleen asunto-osakeyhtiö C:lle vuonna 1980 valmistuneen rivitalon. Vuonna 1993 rakennuksen yhden seinän tiiliverhous oli rakennusvirheen vuoksi sortunut noin 20 metrin matkalta. Kysymys siitä, oliko C:n A:han kohdistama vahingonkorvausvaatimus vanhentunut, kun korvausta vaadittaessa oli kulunut yli kymmenen vuotta rakennuksen vastaanottotarkastuksesta ja siitä, kun asunto-osakeyhtiö oli luovutettu asunnonostajien hallintoon.
