Recently, Zhai Jun, President of the Second Civil Division of the People's Court of Erdao District, Changchun City, successfully mediated a contract dispute case, and the parties sent a pennant to Judge Zhai Jun to express their gratitude.
The plaintiff in this case was a self-employed business engaged in the manufacture of doors and windows, and it signed a contract with the defendant, a construction engineering company, stipulating that the plaintiff would make windows and be responsible for the installation according to the defendant's requirements. After the contract was signed, the defendant paid a deposit to the plaintiff. Later, the plaintiff fulfilled its obligations as agreed and completed the fabrication and installation of the customized windows in a timely manner. However, the defendant delayed the payment of the balance of the contract to the plaintiff, and the plaintiff still refused to perform the payment obligation after repeated reminders, and the plaintiff had no choice but to sue the court and request the court to protect its legitimate rights and interests.
The subject matter of this case is less than 20,000 yuan, and the amount is relatively small, and the small claims procedures are to be applied for trial in accordance with law. In order to efficiently resolve the dispute and reduce the litigation burden of the parties, after reading the case file, the judge contacted the original defendant and the defendant to learn more about the case, and learned that the defendant company lacked liquidity at the end of the year, so it has not been able to settle the final payment. After unremitting communication and coordination, the two parties finally shook hands and made peace, and the plaintiff applied to the court to withdraw the lawsuit, and the case was efficiently resolved in only a few days.
