M. B. Guran Company, Inc. v. City of Akron
Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit
Decided December 8, 1976No. 75-2258PublishedCited by 37 opinions
1Opinion of the Court
ENGEL, Circuit Judge.
The principal and, we hold, controlling issue in this appeal is whether the violation by a local community of guidelines for competitive bidding as contained in a handbook of the Department of Housing and Urban Development gives rise to an implied right of action cognizable in a federal district court against that community in favor of a disappointed contractor whose low bid was not accepted. Upon the authority of Cort v. Ash, 422 U.S. 66, 95 S.Ct. 2080, 45 L.Ed.2d 26 (1975) and related decisions, we hold it does not and affirm the judgment of the district court.
