United States v. Paske

How courts have described this case

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

• holding that “the default clause in this contract did not require a finding that completion within the contract’s time limitations was impossible”
• holding that contractor’s claim that change was not ordered, but merely a proposal, does not excuse con tractor’s duty to continue performance and to perform the contract according to government’s preference
• finding default termination appropriate in light of contractor’s dilatory performance that made the CO “justifiably insecure about the contract’s timely completion”
• when the government was not assured of timely completion, the court could properly “rely upon cases involving abandoned or repudiated contracts”
• government issued a cure notice when the contractor had done no substantial work during the construction season
• failure to provide work schedule bolstered government's position that it was justifiably insecure about timely completion
