William Verry (Glazing Systems) Ltd v Furlong Homes Ltd
- 2005
[2005] EWHC 138 (TCC), 13 January 2005. Discusses the issue of whether a responding party can submit new material in its response to adjudication and looked at the definition of a dispute. The claimant (V) had entered into a contract with the defendant (F) but significant delays led t F granting V two extensions of time. V argued that they were entitled to a longer extension but this claim was rejected by F. F commenced a reverse adjudication in relation to the final account dispute between them and V. A response by V contained a slightly different date for the extension of time and F argued that this was a new extension of time claim. "Held": the different date was held to be an enhancement or refinement of V's earlier claim. Even if the extension of time claim was a new one, it formed part of the dispute which was referred by F and V were entitled to rely upon it in an adjudication.
