Description

On the cold and snowy morning of February 9, 1967, at 8:10 a.m., the roof of the St. Rose of Lima Roman Catholic Church, located in the Brooklyn area of Baltimore City, collapsed into an assemblage of persons gathered inside for a Lenten Mass. Suits were instituted by some of the injured persons against various defendants including those who caused the church to be built as well as those who participated in its planning, construction, and supervision. In two of the suits, the appellee, Mayor and City Council of Baltimore (City), was named as an original defendant, and the appellant, E. Eyring and Sons Company (Eyring), alleged in the pleadings to be the general contractor, filed a cross claim against the City. In three other suits, Eyring impleaded the City as a third party defendant. It was asserted in the various claims that the collapse of the roof was, at least in part, due to the City's Bureau of Building Inspection's failure to see that the building was safely and adequately designed and its failure to properly inspect and supervise its construction to insure compliance with the applicable provisions of the building code. The City responded to these claims by filing motions under Maryland Rule 323 b to dismiss on grounds of governmental immunity in each of the five cases. On June 5, 1968, the Superior Court of Baltimore City delivered a memorandum opinion granting the City's motions and ordered dismissal of the five cases against it. From these orders and the judgments rendered thereon, Eyring has appealed to this Court.
