Because as between 2 innocent parties, the supplier who didn't know the spec was wrong, and the owner, whose contractor screwed up, the legislature has elected to allocate the risk to the owner?

I am going with Michael on this one.  The GC used the wrong specification.  If the owner contracted for a tile roof, why would he be liable for shingles that were specially fabricated due to a contractor error?

I agree with Reese.  If the manufacturer had not role in the error, i.e. they were made to the requested spec, it will have lien rights.

My friend Michael is incorrect.  See § 713.01(13); see also Aquatic Plant Management, Inc. v. Paramount Engineering, Inc., 977 So.2d 600 (Fla. 4th DCA 2007).  Assuming, of course, the windows really were specially fabricated for this project.

Per 713.06(1), the answer appears to be "no".

1.    OWNER contracts with GC for installation of Windows.

2.    GC orders windows from MANUFACTURER/MATERIALMAN.

3.    MANUFACTURER specially fabricates Windows and delivers same to OWNER'S house.

4.    Assume the windows are manufactured exactly how the GC ordered them, but that the GC provided incorrect specifications to the MANUFACTURER.

5.    Upon delivery, OWNER fires GC.

6.    OWNER further advises MANUFACTURER that the windows are all the wrong dimensions and wrong energy ratings (in other words non-conforming goods that do not conform with the plans).

7.    The Windows have not been installed.

8.    Based on the above facts, does the MANUFACTURER/MATERIALMAN have lien rights against the OWNER for non-conforming goods?
