Statutory Interest Cap Overrides Contractual Rate
Synthèse Legislator
Généré par l'IAThe dispute involved the proper calculation of interest owed on a debt stemming from a series of transactions, where the central issue was whether a specified statute governed the interest rate calculation, thereby limiting it to a lower statutory maximum, or if a higher, contractually agreed-upon rate applied. The court reasoned that the relevant statute unambiguously set a maximum interest rate, and where a conflict exists between a statutory mandate and a contractual agreement, the statute controls, thus affirming the lower interest rate calculation imposed by the lower court, as the statutory cap superseded the parties' higher contractual agreement.
