Supplier provides a product not fit for purpose and we lose contract $500,000

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? New York.

One of our suppliers supplied a product that cost us a project workth $500,000, the supplier then threatened legal action if we didn'#t pay for the sample unit.

Can we sue for the contract price of $500,000?

You can sue anyone for anything at any time for any reason anywhere.

But you will have to give us more facts, details, and info.

I'd look to UCC 2-715.

You can ask for whatever damages are available under the tort law you sue the bad people for violating.

Why do you blame the supplier's product for your failure to get or keep the contact?
