Construction company halts work despite overpayment

Of course we will not inform him of that. There is no communication between us and the BU, only through the lawyers.

Then I just have to hope that no representative of the opposing side is reading here.

And if so, then he knows my opinion. Besides, I am not the employer, but my children are.

But you still seem deeply involved in the matter if you always say "we." I guess there has been a lot of communication between the children and the construction company, of which only the whispering game can report on the content. At least, are the children reading along here?

We also warned you against badmouthing the contractor.

No, that certainly isn’t it. I just foolishly still believe in justice.

Belief is something for the church. In matters of justice, personal feelings and emotions have no place; it is purely about the (here vague) facts.

Regarding the facts, I am currently most interested in what Mayrch posted:

Did your lawyer check that? According to 2.2 of your contract, there is a hierarchy of contractual bases, and since the Building Code is apparently listed last. I would interpret that to mean that the defect retention under the Building Code is only applicable if none of the previously listed regulations contain provisions on it.

Yes, he has. He submitted a request to the court, which has not yet been answered. My children have no communication regarding the BU; so far, everything has been handled through me with the power of attorney from my children. Of course, I am deeply involved in the matter because it is my money that is at stake here.

My children have no communication with the BU, so far everything has gone through me with power of attorney from my children.

Dear Hausbau2019, I understand your situation very well and I sympathize with you, but such slips like this one here are simply not acceptable:

And if so, then he knows my opinion. By the way, I am not the employer, but my children are.

Of course, such a statement can happen in the heat of the moment, but if you are already typing such stupid childish defiant announcements here, what will you do in personal conversations, or even in court, if the opposing party twists a fact?

Sorry if I have to complain harshly again now, but after all these months the emotions should have cooled down a bit and it should be clear to YOU, not your children, that now objectivity is the top priority.
