Description
In July 1963 Willamette Construction Company was engaged by Jackson Hole Ski Corporation, owner, to construct an aerial tramway and chairlift facility on its property and that of the United States at Jackson, Wyoming. Subsequently, by a complaint filed March 10, 1965, Martin and Luther General Contractors, Inc., sought personal judgment against Willamette for $111,511.77 and requested that such sum be decreed a lien upon property pursuant to a mechanics lien theretofore filed on real property of the owner-corporation. Willamette, answering for itself and the owner, admitted that Martin and Luther had supplied work and material on some of the property involved for the aerial and work trams but put in issue the allegations of the validity of the lien and presented certain affirmative defenses, setoffs, and counterclaims, which in essence alleged that Martin and Luther did not complete its contract; caused expensive and extensive delays which increased costs tremendously; failed to notify Willamette of expenses; failed to pay its bills as it had agreed; failed to build the construction as planned and that work performed had been done in an unworkmanlike manner; unreasonably allowed liens to be placed against the property of the owner; was careless and negligent in the handling of the construction; and knowingly allowed conflicting work to interfere with the construction of the aerial and work trams, and sought damages because of various alleged breaches of Martin and Luthers contract for the Jackson work and the willful breach of an agreement to enter into a joint-venture contract for the construction of a tram at Sandia Mountain, New Mexico, having intentionally made use of Willamettes special skills and knowledge in the engineering and design of the tram.
