is 20 days: 20 working days or 20 calendar days?
We have never worked for a developer before and began work on a project that the City of Riverside owns. We never filed a preliminary notice as we are used to dealing with city and utility company and have never had a problem with payments. This developer is now balking at paying us. It has been 20 calendar days since we completed our portion of the work, but not 20 working days. Is it too late to file preliminary notice?
CaliforniaWe have a job with Balfour Beaty working on the Jacksonville Transportation System Admin and Bus Transfer. Our last date on site was 4.15.2020. We were wondering if we are able to file a mechanics lien on a government agency?
FloridaMy company worked on a project and we were not paid. I file a claim against the performance bond but they denied the claim. So I file a mechanic's lien on the building. Now, the attorney for the owner/building is trying to bond-off the lien by claiming that the lien is illegal. They are stating that the performance bond protects the project/building against all liens. Is this true?
TexasI am a material supplier and filed a stop notice for a job with the County of San Diego and received the following message: "We have received your legal notice under Civil Code Section 9350 et Seq., dated June 19, 2020, claiming an amount due for work furnished to Prime Contractor (optional Power and Cable Solutions) pursuant to a public works contract. The legal provisions cited in this notice are not applicable, because the agreement between the County and Optional Power and Cable solutions was for a purchase of goods and not a public works contract."
Also, A Third party company placed the order for the County, and the county installed the materials themselves. The county did not require the third party company to provide a performance bond. Was I supposed to file a lien instead of a Stop Notice?
CaliforniaI lien a commercial project, but have not gotten paid can I put a claim to the general contractors bond
CaliforniaWe are working for JE Dunn doing the demolition in phases for the remodel and expansion of the San Marcos Library for the City of San Marcos, TX. We started work on February 18, 2020 which was a time and material change order to our original contract. It took JE Dunn February, March and part of April to issue the change order that they signed our CO proposal for the work. We also did work related to our original contract. We billed the change order (which was finally issued and per JE Dunn approved) and the additional work we did on April 21, 2020. We have not been paid for this work. We are looking at 45 days since pay app and no money yet we started working in February. JE Dunn has provided their bond information. What are our options?
TexasAs the Material Supplier, we filed a bond on the public property (K09863-19.1) is the project id in our Levelset account.
We were later notified of updated BOND information.
Erin Classen suggested I reach out to your to inquire what our next step since their BOND CO has since changed in the midst of the project.
TexasI do most of my work in Florida on final cleaning on commercial construction jobs. However, I now have a project in GA. For GA jobs, do I still file a notice of lien and are there any other nuances I need to know for GA? Also, this is for a community college. The owner is Georgia State Financing and Investment Commission.
Thank you
GeorgiaHow would we look up to see if a commercial construction project is bonded?
TexasHi,
I have a silver surety bond and need to know where do I send this bond so it can be registered? I tried to register it with real property in my county but they won’t accept it. Please advise.
Thanks
Texaswhat form do i have to file in Texas when its a publics works project in order to get paid by general contractor bond?
TexasWe are a subcontractor on a "public" job in Hawaii. The General Contractor was terminated from the job. Can we file a Stop Notice in Hawaii? Hawaii law is unclear if this mechanism is possible.
Thank you,
Patrick
