Gold Kist Peanuts v. Alberson

How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• applying a credit to an amount owed only reduces the net balance on the liquidated claim; it does not render the claim unliquidated
• claim not rendered unliquidated though party at summary judgment created factual question as to the total reduction of the total debt owed
• prejudgment interest unavailable where “the contract itself specified no rate of interest, and ... [the] complaint merely prayed for ‘interest’ without specifying the rate thereof’
• where there was no dispute as to the specific and certain amount and only disagreement as to whether defendant could enforce an assessment as a reduction against the contract amount, the claim was liquidated
