(2) The court of first instance applied the law wrongly.

The court of first instance directly denied the original contract relationship between the contractor and the Employer, denied the main qualification of the contractor, denied the contract rights and interests of the contractor, and instead let the actual constructor Qiu Xiaojun settle the project payment with the Employer, without facts and legal basis.

Tianle Real Estate Company, in violation of the contract, settles with Qiu Xiaojun without authorization and makes payment to him, which clearly constitutes a breach of contract.

The court of first instance held that “it was Qiu Xiaojun who actually performed the contract in the case, and the project payment should be settled by Qiu Xiaojun and Tianle Real Estate Company”, which was inconsistent with the contract, and the fact was wrong.

Even if Article 43 of the interpretation stipulates that the actual constructor can break through the relativity of the contract and sue the employer, subcontractor and illegal subcontractor, it does not deny the contractor’s right to sue based on the contract.

2.

[The gist of the decision] In terms of legal provisions, there is no prohibitive provision on the right of action of the contractor with loan qualification.

According to Article 1 of the Interpretation of Construction Contract Disputes, the contractor who has signed the construction contract of the construction project as the counterpart of the contract, regardless of the lending qualification or other reasons, only involves the determination of the contract invalidity, and there is no restrictive provision that the contract letting party cannot be sued because of the lending qualification and the settlement of the project payment.
