Construction Law Quickcase: LandCoast Insulation v. Patent Construction Systems – When rental agreement becomes construction contract

Description

Abstract: Despite the fact that some of these rental transactions may run to six or seven figures over the duration of a contract, they may be documented by only a boilerplate one- or two-page “purchase order” or “rental agreement.” But the shortness of the paper and the terse heading don’t necessarily preclude a court from construing such a document as a construction contract.
