Brink v. Hayes Branch Drainage District
Appellate Court of Illinois
Decided May 12, 1978No. 14623PublishedCited by 3 opinions
1Opinion of the CourtJustice Mills
In short, we have here a drainage district, a contract for channel improvements, substantial compliance and a judgment for the construction company.
Precisely stated — the trial court was correct.
There is no question whatever that the plaintiff (Ronald L. Brink, d/b/a Brink Construction Company) and defendant (Hayes Branch Drainage District of Douglas County, Illinois) entered into a contract whereby plaintiff agreed to construct approximately 10.9 miles of channel improvements for *196,855. But there most assuredly is disagreement concerning what was discussed at the contract letting.
