A contractor, hired to perform work, failed to complete the agreed-upon construction by the stipulated deadline, leading the hiring party to seek damages for non-performance and termination of the contract. The court of appeal found the contractor at fault for the delay, which justified the termination and the award of damages, upholding the trial court's decision. The highest court dismissed the appeal, affirming that the failure to meet the deadline constituted a fundamental breach, thereby legally supporting the termination of the contract and the consequential financial remedies granted to the party that commissioned the work.
