| 摘要： | WHETHER IT WAS FIRST SAID BY CHRISTOPHER BULLOCK IN 1716, EDWARD WARD IN 1724, OR BENJAMIN FRANKLIN IN 1789, YOU HAVE PROBABLY HEARD THE PHRASE THAT "NOTHING IN THIS WORLD IS CERTAIN, EXCEPT DEATH AND TAXES." PART OF THAT PHRASE HELD TRUE FOR A CONTRACTOR ON A PROJECT FOR THE CONNECTICUT DOT (CTDOT). In 1994, the contractor undertook construction of the Tomlinson Bridge in New Haven for the CTDOT. In 1997, that same contractor separately contracted for reconstruction of the Yellow Mill Pond Bridge in Bridgeport. Significant delays and conflicts arose on both projects. After assignment of the two contracts to a different contractor, the original contractor sought to arbitrate all disputes between it and CTDOT on both projects. The first arbitration award was issued in 2004 in favor of CTDOT for about $1.1 million. A second arbitration award was issued in 2009 in the contractor's favor for over $8 million. |
