We have managed a number of cases involving “wrongful” termination of a contractor or subcontractor. In Louisiana, termination purportedly for cause held to be erroneous or thereby “wrongful” becomes a defacto termination for convenience entitling the terminated contractor to recover lost profits and overhead. See La. C.C. art. 2765, White v. Rimmer & Garrett, Inc., 340 So. 2d 283 (La. 1976), and Glassell, Taylor & Robinson v. John W. Harris Assocs., 209 La. 957, 26 So. 2d 1 (1946). Further, when a contractor (or subcontractor) is terminated, it puts that party’s ability to qualify for future work at risk and it is necessary for the party terminated to seek timely and effective redress. If that should happen to you, seek legal counsel immediately.
