b. Procedural History
Cha Contends:
Cha’s Petition asserts four legal theories of recovery against all defendants: (1) Breach of Contract, (2) Breach of Duty of Good Faith and Fair Dealing, (3) Breach of Implied Warranty, and (4) Negligence. On December 8, 2010, the Court granted the Motions for Summary Judgment to Mitchell, Belongia, and Bebee on all causes of action. On May 13, 2011, the Court granted Cha’s Motion for Reconsideration or Clarification of its December 8, 2010 order granting sunm-iary judgment to Mitchell, Belongia, and Bebee, and vacated that portion of the December 8, 2010 order which granted summary judgment to Mitchell, Belongia, and Bebee on Cha’s negligence claims, and denied summary judgment to Mitchell, Belongia, and Bebee on Cha’s negligence claims.
On December 8, 2010, the Court entered an order staying this action until such time as Cha’s dispute with RECO was resolved through binding arbitration, or until such time as the parties present evidence that they have waived, in writing, the currently binding arbitration process. Accordingly, Cha submitted his claims against RECO for binding arbitration by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). The AAA arbitration was conducted on March 4-6, 2013. On April 30, 2013, the arbitration panel found that RECO properly complied with its contractual obligations to Cha, and was not in any manner negligent, and denied recovery to Cha in the arbitration proceeding. The Court confirmed the arbitration award by order dated May 31, 2013. On June 25, 2013, the Court entered judgment for RECO and against Cha in accordance with the arbitration award.3
On January 21, 2014, Cha voluntarily dismissed his claims against BCI and Belongia. On January 31, 2014, Cha voluntarily dismissed his claims against Chandler, Martin, Bebee, BET, and TTSI. The only claims remaining herein are Cha’ s claims against Mitchell, Mitchell P.C., Rose, and PSR. Cha will voluntarily dismiss his breach of contract, breach of duty of good faith and fair dealing, and breach of implied warranty claims against Rose, individually.
Mitchell P.C. and Mitchell Contend:
On March 14, 2002, Mitchell P.C. provided Cha a proposal to perform specified and limited services associated with an office building. The proposal also specified duties and responsibilities that were the sole duty and exclusive responsibility of Cha. The proposal was approved and accepted by Cha on March 27, 2002. It outlined the limited basic services Mitchell P.C. would provide and stated Cha was responsible for obtaining (and Mitchell P.C. could rely on the accuracy and completeness of): a legal description and land survey of property; services of a Civil Engineer to provide grading and drainage plans and other information necessary to secure approval of governing authorities; services of a soils and materials engineer with reports and professional recommendations; laboratory tests, inspections and reports as required by the specifications and governing authorities; and a topographical survey of the property. Concerning any duty to oversee the project, the proposal stated Mitchell P.C. would make site visits as required to become generally familiar with the progress and quality of the work.
Cha and RECO executed a written agreement dated March 20, 2003 for RECO to serve as the general contractor for the project. The agreement between Cha and RECO included value engineering and a versalok wall substitution. Mitchell P.C. and Mitchell were not responsible for designing the versalok wall.4 Cha began to experience problems with the building due to the wrong soil being used beneath the building and water infiltrating the property, neither of which are the responsibility of Mitchell P.C., or Mitchell.5 Cha and RECO failed to follow the requirements and recommendations of Cha’s soils engineer (Belongia). It was this failure coupled with massive water leaks that caused damage to the building. Cha was negligent in failing to detect the presence of water leaking from the plumbing (both water and sewer) and failing to timely repair the leaks.
Cha filed suit against RECO, TTSI, Chandler, Martin, BET, Bebee, PSR, Rose, Mitchell P.C. and Mitchell. Cha asserted four claims against each of these parties: (1) breach of contract, (2) breach of duty of good faith and fair dealing, (3) breach of implied warranty, and (4) negligence. Upon Mitchell’s motion, the Court dismissed each claim with prejudice against Mitchell. Later, the Court reinstated the negligence claim against Mitchell. All 4 claims remain pending against Mitchell P.C.
At the request of Mitchell P.C. and Mitchell, the Court ordered Cha and RECO to arbitrate their claims. Following the arbitration, Cha dismissed with prejudice all claims against all defendants, except against Mitchell P.C., Mitchell, PSR and Rose.

Mitchell and Mitchell P.C. Contend:
Mitchell caused Plaintiffs claims 1-3 that were alleged against Mitchell to be dismissed with prejudice. Plaintiffs sole claim pending against Mitchell is a claim for negligence. Mitchell P.C. and Mitchell dispute Plaintiffs damages, and affirmatively state Plaintiff is not entitled to any relief from either Mitchell P.C. and/or Mitchell. Any damages incurred by Plaintiff were not caused by Mitchell P.C. and/or Mitchell.
Mitchell and Mitchell P.C.’s Objections to Plaintiffs Theories ocoyçy
1. Mitchell P.C. and Mitchell each deny Plaintiffs claims. Common Law.
2. Mitchell P.C. denies it breached any contract with Cha. Mitchell P.C. performed all its obligations under the contract with Cha.
Common Law. OUJI Chapter 23.
3. Mitchell P.C. denies it breached any duty of good faith and fair dealing. Common Law. OUJI Chapter 23.
4. Mitchell P.C. denies it breached any warranties, implied or otherwise. Common Law. OUJI Chapter 23.
5. Mitchell P.C. and Mitchell both deny Cha’s negligence claim. Mitchell P.C. and Mitchell acted in a reasonably prudent manner at all times.
Common Law. OUJI Chapter 9.
6. The building’s issues were caused by incorrect fill being used, and by water infiltrating the property. Mitchell P.C. and Mitchell had no responsibility regarding the selection of fill material or to monitor for plumbing leaks. The original tests of the soils showed the need to change the character of fill beneath the building and that no subsurface water was detected. After construction, the tests revealed water in the soil. Although Cha knew or should have known the building had water and/or sewer leaks (because the records show Cha was using water far in excess of what would be ordinary for the building’s size and occupancy and Cha had reported to the City of Tulsa that water was gushing and bubbling out of the ground), Cha did not
disclose this information to Mitchell P.C. or Mitchell (or anyone else) when the source of the water was being investigated (including questioning Cha about his sprinkler system use), all in the process of determining the source of water that was causing the floor or slab of the building to heave. Common Law.
7. In the March 13, 2002 proposal which was agreed to and accepted by Cha on March 27, 2002, Cha agreed it was his responsibility for and that Mitchell P.C. could rely on the accuracy and completeness of: (i) a legal description and land survey of the property, (ii) the services of a Civil Engineer to provide grading and drainage plans and other information necessary to secure approval of governing authorities relative to such matters; (iii) the services of a soils and materials engineer with reports and professional recommendations; (iv) laboratory tests, inspections and reports as required by the specifications and governing authorities; and (v) a topographical survey of the property.
Common Law. See proposal. OUJI Chapter 23.
8. RECO was responsible for the construction of the property. Mitchell P.C. had limited construction administration duties consisting of: (i) site visits as required to become generally familiar with the progress and quality of the work (but was not required to test for the correctness of the fill material); (ii) processing shop drawings and other Contractor submittals; (iii) issuing supplemental instructions necessary for plan interpretation; (iv) verification and processing of the Contractor’s monthly application for payment; and (v) preparing a punch list with Cha and the issuing of a certificate of substantial completion.
Common Law. See proposal. OUJI Chapter 23.
9. Mitchell P.C. and Mitchell were not responsible for, nor had anything to do with, the design or construction of the versalok segmental retaining wall. This was RECO’s responsibility as shown in the contract entered into by Cha and RECO.
Common Law. See contract. OUJI Chapter 23.
10. All actions and/or omissions of Mitchell were in his capacity as a disclosed agent of Mitchell P.C.
Common Law. OUJI Chapters 6, 23.
Mitchell P.C. and Mitchell’s Affirmative Defenses
1. Cha failed to state facts sufficient to constitute a cause of action nor a claim for
which relief can be granted.
