Per our attorney, anything it costs above and beyond what the original contractor signed for is owed by the original contractor. If the original project was $100k and you had to pay someone else $300k to get it done, the original contractor owes you at least $200k, and anything else on top of that that you hadn't yet paid them.

It does screw me with my reputation with the customer, but its what it is, I am lining up a new sub. My contract template has a non start/non complete clause of standard verbiage, the whole thing of basically the sub pays whatever it costs beyond any completed work. Im not going to enforce it in this case, but are these clauses actually enforceable? Like could I go hire somebody else at 3x the cost and bill the old sub? In this case Id doubt even with judement id see any dough, Im just curious if anybody has ever had to enforce this? -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
