Energy Investors Fund v. Metric Constructors3/3/2000
d defendants, nor does it allege that any warranty was addressed to it as an "ultimate consumer or user." See Kinlaw v. Long Mfg. N.C., Inc., 298 N.C. 494, 259 S.E.2d 552 (1979). Furthermore, when a claim is only for economic loss, as with EIF's claims, the general rule is that privity is required to assert a claim for breach of an implied warranty involving only economic loss. 2000 Watermark Ass'n v. Celotex Corp., 784 F.2d 1183, 1185 (4th Cir. 1986); Gregory v. Atrium Door & Window Co., 106 N.C. App. 142, 144, 415 S.E.2d 574, 575 (1992). Therefore, EIF's claim for breach of warranty was properly dismissed.
For the foregoing reasons, the decision of the Court of Appeals is affirmed.
AFFIRMED.
