.COMPLAINT IN EQUITY
AND NOW, come Plaintiffs, Grant Electrical Contracting, Inc., and Alan
Unger, by and through their attorney, J. Michael Sheldon, Esquire, and files this Complaint
in Equity based upon the following:
1. Plaintiff Grant Electrical Contracting Inc., is a Pennsylvania
corporation with its principle place of business located at 610 Alexander Spring Road,
Carhsle, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, 17013. Plaintiff is engaged in business as an
provider of electrical contractor services.
2. Plaintiff Alan Unger is a private individual employed as the president
of Grant Electrical Contracting, Inc., with his principle place of business located at 610
Alexander Spring Road, Carlisle, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, 17013. Plaintiff is
engaged in business as an electrical contractor.
3. Defendant Eichelberger Construction Inc., is a Pennsylvania
corporation with its principle place of business located at 124 West Church Street,
Dillsburg, York County, Pennsylvania, 17019-0459. Defendant is engaged in business as a
provider of construction services.
served as a "Notice to Cure" unspecified defects no later than January 15, 2003. A copy of
the letter is attached hereto, made a part hereof, and marked as Exhibit "B."
10. Plaintiffs promptly replied to Defendants' on the same day, January
07, 2003, outlining--among other things--Defendants' failure to provide a proper facility
necessary to the completion of Plaintiffs work, Defendants' failure to pay Plaintiffs for work
completed, a request for clarification of certain Defendants' demands, and notice of work
already completed but which Defendants claimed had not been completed as of that date. A
copy of the letter is attached hereto, made a part hereof, and marked as Exhibits "C-1"
through "C-6."
11. On January 31, 2003, Defendants notified Plaintiffs by letter that:
Defendants would take over all remaining work of Plaintiffs; Plaintiffs were discharged
from all further duties at the project site; that no Plaintiff personnel were to be admitted to
the construction site; that no materials belonging to Plaintiff were to be removed until
project completion by Defendants; and that no further payment for Plaintiffs' completed
work would be forthcoming. A copy of the letter is attached hereto, made a part hereof, and
marked as Exhibits "D-I" through "D-2."
12. Defendants actions excluding Plaintiffs from the work site, denying
Plaintiffs access to theft property and refusing payment have caused and will continue to
cause irreparable harm to Plaintiffs' business and valuable goodwill in that:
(a) Plaintiffs have lost and will continue to lose substantial payment
for work completed;
Plaintiffs have suffered and will continue to suffer a substantial
and severe loss of profits now and indefinitely in the future;
(c) The aforementioned conduct of the Defendants will continue in
violation of the aforesaid Agreement unless enjoined by this
Court.
13. Plaintiff has no adequate remedy at law to protect its business and
property rights and restraint by injunction is necessary to afford adequate relief and
prevent further harm to Plaintiffs.
WHEREFORE, Plaintiffs pray for this Honorable Court to decree and direct
as follows:
That an injunction issue preliminarily enjoining Defendant ECI
Construction from continuing all work as outhned in Plaintiffs'
Subcontract Agreement #02.264.161, dated April 29, 2002 (Exhibits
A-1 through A-4);
That Defendants be required to account to Plaintiff for all work and
profits derived from usurpation of Plaintiffs' duties outlined in
Subcontract Agreement #02.264.161, dated April 29, 2002;
That Plaintiffs be awarded costs.
That Plaintiffs be granted such other relief as this Court may deem
appropriate.

Re: Carlisle Community Center Project
Dear Mr. Whitcsel:
I~ response to your notice to cure, we take exception to your remedy. This is the first
contact you have made with our company regarding this episode of failure to lmy as p~r
our contract. During the short duration of this project, we now have three episodes of
failure to pay as per contract, thc last of which you hand delivered a check. This marks
the third time that wc had to stop work in order to get paid. We will be more than happy
to fulfill our contractual obligations if and when your company fulfills its contractual
obligations by mak/ng progress payments as applied for. Wc have three months of
outstanding application for payment. We were not made aware of any reason for non
payment with these certified applications until now and do not feel that they are valid
rca,sons. We have a total outstanding balance of $21,710.00, Thc minor items le~ to
complete on this project will not total 10 % of this balance, so please forward our
outstanding monies due and then we will complete this project. The punch list has
several completed items on it and scv~-al items needing clarification. We have amended
the punch list with completed items and included comments for some items. Please
review this list and respond.
