Synthèse Legislator

Généré par l'IA

The dispute centered on a provision regarding the calculation of a penalty based on a debt amount, where the governing instrument contained conflicting language about whether the calculation should use a fixed percentage or a percentage tied to the outstanding balance. The court reasoned that the ambiguity in the contractual language, specifically concerning the two different methods for computing the applicable sum, rendered the provision susceptible to more than one reasonable interpretation; therefore, the interpretation favoring the party who did not draft the instrument, which resulted in a smaller penalty, was adopted as the controlling meaning.
