It has been defined as: \\u201ca legal duty owed to the Plaintiff by  the Defendant; a breach of that duty; an actual injury to the Plaintiff;  and a showing that the breach was a proximate cause of the injury." \\u201cA  breach of duty exists when it is foreseeable that one\\u2019s conduct may  likely injure the person to whom the duty is owed.\\u201d  The California Supreme Court upheld a judgment for property damage  caused by negligent residential construction in Sabella v. Wisler, 59  Cal.2d 21, 27-30 (1963). The defendant had built a house and offered it  for sale to the general public. As it turned out, the defendant\\u2019s  negligent preparation of the lot, in combination with a subcontractor\\u2019s  careless plumbing work, later caused leaks, subsidence, and damage to  the house. The purchasers sued for negligence.     \\xa9 2021 \\u2013 Barry Zalma
