The owners of the Parkwoods Apartments were sued after the apartment complex was destroyed in the 1991 Oakland-Berkeley hills firestorm. The cases, Victor May, et al., vs. Paine Webber Properties, and David William Abilgaard, et al., vs. Paine-Webber Properties, were heard in the Alameda County Superior Court. This collection includes depositions (some with accompanying exhibits) background materials about the Parkwoods Apartments (primarily copies of original maps used in the planning and construction of the Parkwoods Apartments, and other assorted materials).
