Six years ago Jean Jones started a business in Pasadena, California, (J&J

Flooring, 123 S. Raymond Avenue, 91105) manufacturing and selling custom

flooring for hotels and retail establishments in Southern California. On October

15, 2019, at her Pasadena office, she entered into a written contract to produce

flooring for the Seaside Hotel in Laguna Beach, California (485 N Pacific Coast

Highway, Laguna Beach, CA 92651). The flooring was delivered for installation on

January 30, 2020, 2019. However, the Seaside general manager, John Stamen,

refused to accept the flooring, claiming that it did not meet the contract

specifications. Jones states that the delivered flooring complied with the contract

requirements.

The contract price was $9,000 and the custom flooring cannot be resold to any

other customer.

Jones is suing Seaside Hotel.
