Pacific Allied v. Century Steel Products, Inc

In Pacific Allied v. Century Steel Products, Inc. (1958) 162 Cal.App.2d 70, the contract called for the first party to provide an "itemized cost breakdown." (Id. at p. 78.) That party instead provided a more general "Statement of Cost" that the second party impliedly accepted. The Pacific Allied court concluded that substantial evidence supported the trial court's finding that the second party had waived strict compliance with the itemized cost breakdown requirement. (Id. at pp. 78-79.)
