Statutory Interest Calculation Methodology Dispute
Synthèse Legislator
Généré par l'IAThe court reviewed various provisions related to the calculation of statutory interest, specifically addressing the application and scope of different interest formulas based on the timing of payments and the existence of a written agreement. The court reasoned that the appropriate interest calculation method depends on whether a governing written agreement specifies a rate and, in the absence of such an agreement or in cases involving specific types of disbursements, the statutory provisions prescribing default interest rates or formulas must be strictly applied, leading to reversals or affirmations of lower court interest awards based on which formula correctly fit the operative facts and governing contract terms.
