Under the contract for the performance of survey and design work, the customer did not pay our client the cost of this work, although the work itself was accepted without comments. The customer referred to difficulties with funding from the budget and asked to wait. For a long time, our client waited, but in the end decided to contact us for help in the Arbitration Court of the Tver Region.
Along with the debt, we demanded to recover from the defendant also interest for the use of funds for the entire period of delay until the moment of execution of the court decision. Disagreeing with the amount of interest, the defendant referred to the same arguments about the lack of budget funds and the fact that the amount of interest had increased significantly over the entire period of delay.
The court did not take these objections into account and recovered the claimed interest in full.
The defendant did not argue with this decision, and it entered into force.
