Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the arbitration clause in a contract under which the contractor claimed damages due to the employer's alleged breaches. The Court held that the contractor's failure to resume work after the stipulated completion date justified the employer's decision to terminate the contract and seek alternative execution. The Court emphasized that the contractor's claims for damages were not valid as they did not fulfill the contractual obligations, thus upholding the employer's actions under the contract terms.
