Patrick Andrew Fleming, lead counsel of Chicago's Novack and Macey,
along with Julie Johnston-Ahlen and Richard G. Douglass, won partial
summary judgment for their client, Apex Construction Company, a local
construction contractor, in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois.
After the prime contractor of a public construction project failed to pay Apex for the work it had done, Novack and Macey
filed a complaint on the contractor’s behalf against both the prime
contractor and the bonding company that issued the project bond required
under Illinois law. The project bond is intended to ensure payment to
all contractors who work on a public construction project. Read a recent
interview with Patrick Andrew Fleming
Novack
and Macey filed a motion for partial summary judgment, seeking recovery
from the bonding company of the amounts owed under the project bond.
Both the prime contractor and the bonding company opposed the motion.
Nonetheless, the Court granted the motion and Novack and Macey won a
judgment for every penny that its client was seeking. Thus, the Court
entered judgment in favor of Apex in the full amount that it was
seeking, plus prejudgment interest and attorneys’ fees under the terms
of the bond.
