Quality Design & Construction, Inc. v. City of Gonzales

|2The defendant, the City of Gonzales (the City), appeals a January 3, 2013 judgment granting a writ of mandamus. The mandamus compels the City to pay a contract balance of $51,200.00, previously adjudged by the trial court (and affirmed by this court) to be due and owing to the plaintiff, Quality Design and Construction, Inc. (QDC). QDC also appeals that judgment, assigning error to the court’s failure to include an order compelling the City additionally to pay interest on the amount owed and due.
