The plaintiff electrical contractor sued the defendant property managers for unpaid invoices relating to electrical services and energy-efficient lighting installations.
The defendants claimed set-off and brought a separate action against the plaintiff and its principal for fraudulent or negligent misrepresentation, alleging defective work, failure to secure energy rebates, and uncertified fixtures.
The court found the plaintiff was entitled to $123,339.06 for unpaid invoices.
The defendants' set-off claims were dismissed as they failed to prove the plaintiff breached its contract or caused the alleged damages.
The defendants' separate action was dismissed as statute-barred under the Limitations Act, 2002, and the court declined to pierce the corporate veil to hold the plaintiff's principal personally liable.
