I'm not an attorney, but that sounds like opportunism to me. On the other hand, people get blind-sided by their employees sometimes, and he may have only discovered the problems recently. However, $3000 in lost revenues over a year and a half doesn't sound like that serious a problem.

I have been happily not-contracting for at least a year and a half, so it has to be that long. -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Charlotte Foust Sent: Monday, January 24, 2005 12:34 PM To: Access Developers discussion and problem solving Subject: RE: [AccessD] Time for More Legal Discussion - Oh Boy Sounds like time to have an attorney talk to him. How long ago did he discover that the program was "bad"?

It has cost this one client, he claims, $3000 in lost revenue and he wants the payment for the system refunded plus damages. The user never notified said programmer that there was a problem even though they have been using it for a good six months. -- AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com -- AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com -- AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com
