- High Court
The statutory demand was set aside except for the provable unpaid balance of $79,301.65 because Concast West Ltd failed to establish an arguable genuine and substantial dispute about the work charged or clear and persuasive grounds for a counterclaim; invoices were supported by contemporaneous documentation and time records; claims for contractual interest and debt collection costs were disallowed for lack of contractual basis and/or reasonableness.
