Contractual Quality Dispute and Extrinsic Evidence Admissibility
Synthèse Legislator
Généré par l'IAThe appellant sought to recover damages for breach of contract, claiming that the appellee failed to deliver materials of the agreed-upon quality, leading to losses in construction projects. The court reasoned that the contractual specification regarding material quality was ambiguous as written, and the trial court did not err in admitting extrinsic evidence to determine the parties' intent regarding the standard of quality; furthermore, the court found sufficient evidence to support the trial court's determination that the delivered materials did not conform to the contractually intended standard, thus upholding the finding of breach and the resulting damages award.
