Description
ZIMMERMAN, Justice: Defendant Quailbrook Condominium Company ("Quailbrook") appeals from a jury verdict awarding the plaintiffs, members of the Morgan family, $25,000 for intentional invasion of their land by the discharge of surface waters and $4,000 for intentional interference with plaintiffs supply of irrigation water for their crops. Quailbrook contends that the court erred in assuming that the intentional discharge of water onto the Morgan property was sufficient to render it liable for any resulting damages because the proper legal standard requires, in addition to the intentional discharge, an intent to inflict the resulting harm. The evidence, asserts Quailbrook, does not show such an intention. Alternatively, Quailbrook claims the jury instructions failed to adequately state the law. We affirm the judgment below.
