Overview
The plaintiff, a bar/restaurant, filed suit against our client, a sign and awning contractor, seeking damages in excess of $450,000 for lost profits and expected costs to remove and replace a non-permitted and, allegedly, defective beer garden and awning structure constructed by the client on the plaintiff’s property. The client filed a counterclaim seeking recovery of the $65,000 outstanding on its contract for the construction of the structure. Following a three day bench trial, an award was entered denying the plaintiff any recovery on its complaint and awarding the client the $65,000 requested in its counterclaim, plus interest and costs.
