This contract dispute case involves a nursing home seeking damages from a construction company and an insurance company for breaching a contract to build a nursing home. The court ruled that the exclusion of the nursing home's expert witness's testimony was justified, and that the measure of damages should be limited to the reasonable cost of completing the contract and repairing any defective performance, minus any unpaid portion of the contract price. The court also rejected the nursing home's claims for damages related to delay in construction and additional interest payments due to lack of evidence.

Brief anything. Instantly.

Our proprietary state-of-the-art system can instantly brief over 6,000,000 US cases. That means we can probably brief that case that your professor assigned last night when she sent you a poorly scanned pdf and told you to read every third paragraph. Or maybe she uploaded it to Canvas and didn’t really tell you to read it, but you know you probably should. Tenure does wild things to good people.
