    Default Subcontractor Unresponsive Regarding Lien Release

    My question involves a consumer law issue in the State of: CT

    In the course of finalizing a recent renovation contract I have a question. The GC has supplied all the releases as I required; partials at draw payments, partials from subs along the way.

    As we are trying to get all our paperwork finished up and final payment released, he has encountered a subcontractor that has been unresponsive. While the sub has been paid, neither the GC or myself can get him to return any of our calls or emails.

    I wonder if there's anything I can get from the GC that will satisfy the release from this sub? We're about 45 days from the 90 day lien limit. I hate to have him wait that long but might have to.

    Ideas are invited.

    Regards

    satisfy the release? What release?


    The GC cannot prevent the sub from filing a lien if that is what you are asking. You and the GC can enter an agreement the GC willl indemnify you should the sub make any claims against you or the property though. It would not prevent the sub from taking action but it would require the GC to do whatever it takes to settle the issue without cost to you.
