Look back in anger

Powell-Smith, V.

Look back in anger - 1995 - Contract Journal 378(6019) 6 April 1995, 15(1) .

Considers "Sheffield v Conrad" (1987) and the defence for non-payment. After the employer had terminated the contract a defect was found, which was caused by the premature removal of props at the time of the termination. It was held that the employer could not use this retrospective knowledge of the builder`s action to justify termination.
