extensive repair of the upstairs batluoom in the same house.
4. The contract price for the work was agreed as $ 17,200.
5. Defendants made several payments of varying amounts for the work, and voiced
unhappiness with the speed with which the work was being done, so several
credits were also applied to the contract price by Plaintiffs.
7. Due to delays beyond the control of Plaintiff,. Defendants became increasingly
wiha~y with the progress of the work and therefore demanded changes and
alterations which were not agreed to by Plaintiff and which were never made a
pact of any contract.
8. Plaintiffs were told not to finish the work on or about February 26, 2007.
9. Al that point the downstairs bathroom work was completed.
~~
BR~F CH OF CONTRACT

11. Defendants have vnllfully refused to pay the amount due under the contract,
Three Thousand Eight Hundred Seventy-Four and twenty-four One Hundredths
Dollars ($3874.24).
WHEREFORE, Plaintiff asks Your Honorable Court to enter jtt on his behalf
and against Defendant in the amount of Three Thousand Eight Hundred Seventy-Four and
twenty-four One Hundredths Dollars ($3874.24}, plus costs and interest.

Plaintiff
v. NO. 07-5138 Civil Term
DANIEL AND SUZANNE MURREN,
Defendants CIVIL - AT LAW
ANSWER WITH NEW MATTER
AND NOW COME THE DEFENDANTS, by their counsel, Ball, Murren & Connell, a~~d file
this Answer with New Matter to the Complaint of Plaintiff the statement of which is as follows:
Admitted
2. Admitted.
3. Admitted that the parties entered into a written understanding about price and
scope of work in order to install a new first floor bathroom and to renovate the
existing second floor bathroom and as summarily outlined in the document
attached to Plaintiffls Complaint. Denied as to the remainder of the allegation.
By way of further answer, proof of the scope of the work is demanded at trial. In
addition, the contract between the parties included other terms, one of which was
a requirement that the work be completed within one (1) month of
commencement.
4. Admitted.
Admitted that Defendants made payments to the Plaintiff, the total thereof being
$10,686.52 representing the full value for the work completed by Plaintiff.
Denied as stated that several credits were applied and strict proof thereof is
demanded at trial.
6. Denied as stated that delays were beyond the control of Plaintiff. To the contrary..
Plaintiff, as the contractor, agreed to provide the service contracted for and had a
duty to diligently prosecute the work which duty was breached. The remainder of
the allegation concerning changes and alterations lacks specificity as they are
unrelated to the Complaint and therefore require no answer.
7. Denied as stated. Plaintiff was directed to not undertake work on the second floor
or about the date stated which date was six (6) months after commencement of the
work and five (5) months after the work was to be completed by Plaintiff.
Plaintiff's failure and refusal to timely prosecute the work left Defendants with nc.
reasonable alternative.
8. Denied as stated that work on the downstairs bathroom was complete. Strict
proof thereof is demanded at trial.
COUNT 1.
9. Answers to paragraph one (1) through nine (9) are incorporated herein as if fully
set forth herein.
10. Denied that any further sum is due under the contract as Defendants paid Plaintiff
$10,686.52 constituting payment in full for the work completed.
WHEREFORE, Defendants respectfully request that judgment be entered in their favor
and against Plaintiff with all costs of suit to be imposed upon Plaintiff.
NEW MATTER
11. Paragraphs 1-10 of Defendants' Answer are incorporated herein by reference as if
fully set forth.
12. Plaintiff s failure to timely provide the services required by the agreement
between the parties was a material breach of the contract which bars Plaintiff's
claim.
13. Plaintiff s failure to timely provide the services requirred by the agreement
between the parties constitutes non-performance of tl~e contract which bars
Plaintiff's claim.
14. Plaintiff s failure to timely provide the services required under the agreement bars
Plaintiff's action by the defense of waiver.
15. Plaintiff induced Defendants to enlist Plaintiff's services based upon a promise to
complete the project within four (4) weeks of the date on which work
commenced.
16. Plaintiff commenced work to provide the services agreed upon on August 7, 2006
knowing that it was essential to the Defendants that the work had to proceed
diligently to be completed within the agreed upon tinne frame.
.~
17. After significant delays in prosecuting the work occasioned, in part, by Plaintiff's
failure to adequately supervise workers in its employ or subcontractors it retained,
Defendants advised Plaintiff that work on the first floor bathroom was to be
concluded.
18. Due to Plaintiff s unprofessional prosecution of the work, Defendants were forced
to seek another contractor to undertake and complete the work on the second floor
bathroom which had been part of the agreed to scope of work with the Plaintiff.
19. In completing the second floor bathroom renovation, Defendants expended Four
Thousand Nine Hundred Sixty Five Dollars and Thirty-Five Cents. ($4,965.35).
20. Plaintiff has attempted to apportion values for the first and second floor projects,
after the fact, and knowing that Plaintiff had breached its obligation to
Defendants, by claiming through its Complaint that the agreed upon price of
$17,200 should have been allotted with approximately 85% attributable to the
new first floor bathroom and approximately 15% for the second floor bathroom
renovation.
21. Plaintiffs self-serving apportionment does not at all comport with the cost to
Defendants to obtain the work which Plaintiff was to have provided; is an effort to
obtain a higher payment than warranted for the work completed by Plaintiff and
ignores Defendants substantial and full payment for the work completed.
WHEREFORE, Defendants respectfully request that this Court enter judgment in their
favor and against Plaintiff with all costs of suit to be imposed upon Plaintiff.
Respectfully Submitted,
