The Wheelers have breached the contract by failing to pay the amount ofSzeles' services amount, for which they have been invoiced. 2 WHEREFORE, it is respectfully requested that judgment be entered in favor of Plaintiff and against Defendants in the amount of$9,381.97, plus pre-judgment interest at the legal rate, together with all costs associated with the collection of this debt, and whatever other remedy this court deems just and proper.
