National Chain Co. v. Campbell

How courts have described this case

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

• determining the formula for substantial performance is inappropriate when the contractor's performance is worthless and the work has to be completely redone, and finding the contractor is liable for the cost of having the job redone
• determining the amount of damages sustained as a result of a party's breach must be proven with a reasonable degree of certainty, and a plaintiff must establish reasonably precise figures as to the value of the work performed
