Our company completed a private project in Louisiana as a general contractor on 6/26/18 (substantial completion). Our company hired a subcontractor to perform a specific scope of work as part of this project. We later had to terminate the services of the subcontractor due to multiple performance and schedule issues. The subcontractor abandoned the jobsite on 5/11/18, then we filed a Notice of Default with the subcontractor on 5/15/18, and finally filed a Notice of Termination with the subcontractor on 5/17/18. Our company then had to complete the specific scope of work of this subcontractor, and complete the overall project. My questions: 1. What lien rights does this subcontractor have against the owner property, and 2. What are the deadlines for the subcontractor to file a lien? Our company has filed a Notice of Completion with the local parish clerks office for the overall project based on completion date of 6/26/18 and a Notice of Termination with the local parish clerks office against the subcontractor in question for their specific scope of work based on termination date of 5/17/18.
