Minority contractors * USA - Pawns or players?
The owner of a small trucking company says the Cardi Corp. used her company as a front to meet the minority-hiring requirements for winning state highway contracts — and then cut her out of the jobs and the money
Providence,RI,USA -The Providence Journal (subscription), by Katherine Gregg -July 22, 2007: -- In a breach-of-contract lawsuit filed in Kent County Superior Court in May, Twins Oil owner Michele Grieco alleges that Cardi reneged after signing her up to deliver $506,361 worth of a liquid ingredient used in making asphalt for state paving contracts... Grieco is not asking to be paid for materials she did not deliver... Her lawsuit asks instead for “expectation damages,” the lost profits on each of the jobs: a total of $50,636 plus interest and attorney’s fees...
