The owners of a home destroyed in a landslide in Jackson have filed a lawsuit alleging construction work made the hillside below their house unstable.

Jeremy and Sara Budge are seeking compensation from construction and engineering companies and previous owners of a nearby Walgreens property.

Their lawsuit names more than a dozen defendants.

The slow-moving landslide last year ripped the Budges' home in two.

Authorities temporarily evacuated dozens of other homes and apartments.

The Walgreens is permanently closed.

Walgreens reached a $150,000 settlement with the Budges in September and is not directly part of the litigation.

Those involved in the case either declined to comment or did not return calls.
