Description
The instant complaint was filed on July 7, 1976, some seven years after decedent's death. The complaint alleged: that appellants were residents of Honolulu; that appellee was a registered general partnership and was the developer or owner-builder and general contractor of the Amfac and Hawaii Buildings in Honolulu; that on February 3, 1969, Tadashi Yamasaki died from an industrial accident; that on June 27, 1969, the State Director of Labor and Industrial Relations awarded Worker's Compensation Benefits to appellants; that on March 3, 1972, appellee was found to be Tadashi Yamasaki's employer, thus liable for payment of death benefits to appellants; that on August 7, 1975, the State Labor and Industrial Relations Appeals Board found that appellee was not the decedent's employer. It was further alleged that appellee and/or its agents were negligent in maintaining the worksite and/or in obtaining, maintaining and/or operating equipment for the worksite; that the death of Tadashi Yamasaki was caused by the negligence of appellee and/or its agents; that at the time of his death, decedent was employed and in good health, intelligent, and with strong prospects for a long and fruitful life; that decedent was living with his wife and children as a family and by reason of his death said children were deprived of love, affection, care, counseling and guidance that decedent provided and as a result suffered great mental anguish; that decedent's wife was deprived of her husband's companionship, comfort, consortium and services, and incurred medical and other expenses, and as a result suffered great mental anguish. Appellants sought one million dollars in general damages and such special damages as could be proved at trial.
