Question:

Duties That Cannot Be Delegated. Bruce Albea Contracting, Inc., the contractor on a highway project, subcontracted the asphalt work to APAC-Southeast, Inc. Their contract prohibited any delegation without Albea’s consent. In midproject, APAC delegated its duties to Matthews Contracting Co.

Although Albea allowed Matthews to finish the work, Albea did not pay APAC for its work on the project. Albea argued that APAC had violated the antidelegation clause, rendering their contact void. Is Albea correct? Explain. [Western Surety Co. v. APAC-Southeast, Inc., 302 Ga.App. 654, 691 S.E.2d 234
