Abstract

UPON DUE CONSIDERATION, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, ADJUDGED, AND DECREED that the judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.

Plaintiff-appellant Air China Limited ("Air China") appeals from so much of the district court's judgment entered on August 10, 2010, as dismissed certain of its claims and denied discovery sanctions. Defendants Jay Kopf ("Kopf"), WBM-JMK Development L.L.C., dba WBM International Development ("WBMID"), JMK Construction Group ("JMK") and John A. Varacchi ("Varacchi") (collectively, "Defendants") cross-appeal, raising numerous arguments that essentially challenge the judgments entered against them on breach of contract, conversion, and unjust enrichment causes of action following a seventeen-day jury trial. The action was brought to recover damages allegedly sustained by Air China in connection with the construction of a residential facility for Air China employees in Queens, New York. We assume the parties' familiarity with the underlying facts and procedural history in this case.
