Max Gordon v. Carl F. Woods, Trustee, in the Matter of the Young Corporation, Bankrupt
203 F.2d 363 | 1st Cir. | 1953
Lead Opinion
Appellant has filed a petition for rehearing, to which appellee, at our invitation, has filed an answering memorandum. We think the petition for rehearing should be denied. 202 F.2d 476. An order to that effect will be entered.
Concurrence Opinion
(concurring).
As additional support for our view that the provision for liquidated damages is not controlling, reference might be made to 3 Williston on Contracts (Rev. ed. 1936), note 1, page 2222: “The provision for liquidated damages is also inoperative where the defendant’s willful breach is in wanton disregard of the plaintiff’s rights, but substantial or even punitive damages will be given.”
