HELEN S. BALICK, Bankruptcy Judge.

This is a breach of contract action. Gates Engineering Co., Inc. sued Standard Roofing, Inc. to recover $68,674.09 for roofing materials Standard received but for which it did not pay. Standard denies liability, claiming that inventory it still possesses should be credited against monies it owes Gates. Standard also counterclaims against Gates for breach of contract and tortious interference with its contractual relationships with customers. Standard seeks compensatory and punitive damages and attorney’s fees.
