A battle over a key downtown San Jose property needed for a future BART station may head to a jury trial.
SAN JOSE — A battle over a property in a prime downtown San Jose spot needed for a future BART station appears headed to a jury after a mediation attempt failed, court papers show.
The property was the long-time site of a now-closed Chase Bank branch. The building totals 22,400 square feet. “The parties have gone through mediation without success,” according to papers filed in Santa Clara County Superior Court by Norman Matteoni and Gerald Houlihan, attorneys with law firm Matteoni, O’Laughlin & Hechtman, which is representing the Swenson firm’s affiliate.
The BART project, however, has been haunted by a series of delays and cost overruns that have steadily ratcheted up the estimated price for the BART extension into downtown San Jose.
