Hometown Financial, Inc. v. United States

Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit

Decided May 27, 2005No. 2004-5116PublishedCited by 50 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

CLEVENGER, Circuit Judge.

The United States appeals from the decision of the Court of Federal Claims awarding Hometown Financial, Inc., and Continental Financial Holdings, Inc., (collectively “Hometown”) $2,050,000 for breach of contract. Because there is a contract between the plaintiffs and the government, because the contract does not shift the risk of regulatory change to the plaintiffs, and because the government cannot demonstrate clear error in the trial court’s conclusion that there was no prior material breach on the part of the plaintiffs, we affirm.
