Heading: The Benaglio job (basis for Counts 7 and 8)

Text: In 2005, DRI performed restoration work on a property in Broomfield, Colorado, owned by John Benaglio and insured by The Hartford Insurance Company (The Hartford). Troudt sent The Hartford a DRI estimate that included seven line items for vinyl windows that included the following language: “The line item above represents the actual cost of the window for installation and material per the invoice from Professional Window Service.” Id. at 79, 83, 88, 91, 93, 94, 96. These seven line items in DRI’s estimate totaled $4,084.72. But DRI paid its subcontractor, Professional Window Service, only $3,568.44 for the work. On this same DRI estimate, Troudt also listed three subcontractor line items for “ELECTRICAL” work. Id. at 108-09. Each of these line items stated that the amounts were “[p]er invoice from Ruby Electric.” Id. However, DRI actually paid Ruby Electric 20% less for each line item than was listed on its estimate to The Hartford.
