Nevada – Commercial design professionals protected from professional negligence claims by economic loss doctrine
The Nevada Supreme Court held in Terracon Consultants Western, Inc. v. Mandalay Resort Group, 206 P.3d 81 (2009) that, “in a commercial property construction defect action in which the plaintiffs seek to recover purely economic losses through negligence-based claims, the economic loss doctrine applies to bar such claims against design professionals who have provided professional services in the commercial property development or improvement process.” This holding arises out of a question certified under NRAP 5 from the United States District Court for the District of Nevada.
