Contractor's Wrongful Termination for Unfulfilled Payment Condition
Synthèse Legislator
Généré par l'IAA contractor, hired to perform specific work, prematurely terminated the contract after the contract giver paid a portion of the agreed price but before the work was complete, alleging that the other party had breached a condition related to the timing of subsequent payments, but the court found that the contractor's obligation to complete the work was not contingent on receiving the advance payment, as the contract did not explicitly stipulate that the commencement or continuation of the work was suspended pending that payment, thus rendering the termination by the contractor a breach of contract.
