Another victory in the construction contract!

Today, we have achieved success in the court of appeal, leaving unchanged the decision of the court of first instance to invalidate the unilateral refusal of the Moscow Region city administration from the municipal contract.

The administration’s unilateral rejection of the contract was based on the contractor’s fault, which we did not agree with. During the trial, we managed to prove to the appellate court that the contractor was not at fault for violating the deadlines for completing the work under the contract due to the administration’s violations of counter obligations. The contractor’s actions were found to be in good faith, despite the administration’s attempts to prove otherwise. The court denied the administration’s complaint.

Interests were represented by Maria Ovchinnikova, Head of the Department of Legal Support for Contractual and Judicial Work of the Bureau of Lawyers “De jure”.
