Letter from the governmental customer: how to recover the cost of works that are not stipulated in contract
The contractor, which renovated a children’s sports school, received a letter from the authorities requesting it to derogate from the provisions of a government contract. “Fixed windows did not allow ventilation of a hall, therefore, bottom-hinged sashes are required”, - the customer explained. The contractor did so but the counterparty then refused to pay for these works. Two instances have agreed with the latter since no supplementary agreement for installation of sashes has been signed. The court of cassation has made things right.
