[CLC-Discussion] Unlicensed subcontractor for local license

[Sakwa, Stuart H.]

For the benefit of all inquiring minds, several people have sent me the
following citation which they indicate addresses the issue, although
maybe not to my liking. MGM Const. Services Corp. v. Travelers Cas. &
Sur. Co. of Am., 57 So. 3d 884 (Fla. 3d DCA 2011). 

 

Thank you to those who responded.

Subject: [CLC-Discussion] Unlicensed subcontractor for local license

 

Is anyone aware of a case that holds that a subcontractor who does not
have a certificate of competency for a specialty trade that is required
by a county ordinance, but not 489, is barred from enforcing its
contract or lien rights?
