This decision addresses the second part of a bifurcated trial concerning a construction contract dispute.
The plaintiff, a construction company, sought payment for unpaid invoices, while the defendants counterclaimed for deficient and incomplete work, as well as punitive, exemplary, and general damages under the Consumer Protection Act.
The court found that the defendants had unjustifiably terminated the contract.
Consequently, the plaintiff's claim for outstanding payments was largely allowed, with a minor reduction for an acknowledged credit.
The defendants' extensive counterclaim for damages was mostly dismissed, as they failed to provide sufficient evidence for many claims and were found to be the breaching party.
Only a small portion of their compensatory damages claim for specific deficiencies was allowed.
