DEFENDANTS BREACHED THE CONTRACT BY TERMINATING IT WITHOUT GIVING PLAINTIFF THE TIME TO CURE DEFICIENCIES CALLED FOR IN THE CONTRACT (FOURTH DEPT).

The Fourth Department determined defendants should not have terminated plaintiff’s contract to install a heating system without giving plaintiff the time to cure deficiencies called for by the contract:

… [W]e conclude that plaintiff met its initial burden of establishing that defendants failed to follow the termination for cause procedures in the contract when they, inter alia, did not provide plaintiff seven days to cure deficiencies before terminating the contract, and defendants failed to raise a triable issue of fact with respect thereto … . “Where a contract provides that a party must fulfill specific conditions precedent before it can terminate the agreement, those conditions are enforced as written and the party must comply with them” … . Here, defendants’ failure to allow plaintiff the requisite time to cure before terminating the contract rendered defendants’ termination wrongful, and therefore the court erred in denying that part of plaintiff’s motion with respect to liability on the breach of contract cause of action … . Black Riv. Plumbing, Heating & A.C., Inc. v Board of Educ. Thousand Is. Cent. Sch. Dist., 2019 NY Slip Op 06321, Fourth Dept 8-22-19
