The allegations as set forth in Paragraphs 1 through 12 are

14
Plaintiff did put in six pins at the subject property, but one of
the pins was eight feet short from the correct location.

at his office in or about October 1991.
17
At a discussion that took place between both Defendants and Mr.
Fisher at Mr. Fisher's office in or about October of 1991, Mr.
Fisher then advised Defendants that he was not going to complete
the job because "the Fairground is buying the property."
18
At the time Mr. Fisher made the statement to the Defendants that he
was not going to complete the work that was required, Defendants
did not have any agreement with the Carlisle Fairgrounds for the
sale of the property.

Plaintiff committed an anticipatory breach by failing to complete
the work pursuant to the agreement between Plaintiff and
Defendants.
