Condor Construction Co. v. Dec Electric, Inc.
547 So. 2d 953; 14 Fla. L. Weekly 1615; 1989 Fla. App. LEXIS 3780; 1989 WL 73797
(Southern Reporter, Second Series)
Condor Construction Co. v. Dec Electric, Inc.
Opinion of the Court
AFFIRMED. We find that there is competent, substantial evidence in the record to support the trial court’s conclusion that the appellant-contractor failed to notify the ap-pellee-subcontractor of the owner’s instructions to stop work on the project. Based upon that factual finding we find no error in the trial court’s holding that the appellant is responsible to the appellee for work done after the stop work order was issued, and is not entitled to rely on a contractual provision conditioning its obligation to pay on its receipted payment from the owner. Cf. Peacock Construction Company v. Modern Air Conditioning Inc., 353 So.2d 840 (Fla. 1977).
