Description

The City of Salinas brought an action against Souza & McCue Construction Co., Inc., seeking damages for the alleged breach of a contract made in June 1958, as modified in September 1958, for the construction of a storm sewer. Souza filed an answer denying the breach and a pleading denominated a "cross-complaint" setting forth two causes of action; the first cause of action is for the recovery of the balance allegedly due under the June 1958 contract as modified, and the second is a common count for goods and services assertedly furnished by Souza at Salinas request. After Salinas filed an answer to the cross-complaint, Souza moved for leave to file an amended answer and cross-complaint. The motion was denied, and Souza seeks a writ of mandate to direct the trial court to permit the filing of the amended pleading.
