Description
This diversity action controlled by Kentucky law is based upon a tort generally known as "injurious falsehood." Sargent & Lundy, an engineering firm, and its individual partners appeal a judgment entered upon a jury verdict awarding $500,000 plus interest and costs to General Electric Company and General Electric Environmental Services, Inc. ("GEESI") on their claims of injurious falsehood. In the district court, General Electric and GEESI essentially claimed that a third party, Kentucky Utilities Company, filed suit against them as a result of misrepresentations by Sargent & Lundy which blamed them for damage to Kentucky Utilities' power-generating facilities. General Electric and GEESI, a wholly owned subsidiary of General Electric, sought punitive damages and compensatory damages to recover the cost of defending against Kentucky Utilities' suit allegedly brought in reliance on Sargent & Lundy's false statements.
