The Fcm Group, Inc. v. Jeffrey T. Miller

Summary

The court held that Cheryl Miller could not be liable for breaching a construction contract she neither signed nor was made a party to, and that the plaintiff failed to prove entitlement to the unpaid contract balance, delay damages, foreclosure, or related attorney's fees. The court also held that the contract provided extensions of time, rather than monetary damages, for permitting delays and changes ordered by the owner, while affirming the award of $3,660.67 in lost profit and $5,000 for failure to release an invalid mechanic's lien. The judgment was otherwise reversed, and the case was remanded to determine Jeffrey Miller's reasonable attorney's fees under § 49-8 (c).
