by Oumano, Emily

 

AC46668 - Hadji v. Snow (“In this action for breach of contract, the defendants Patrick T. Snow, a real estate developer, and six limited liability companies owned and/or managed by Snow (defendant companies) appeal from the judgment rendered by the trial court in favor of the plaintiff, Andreas S. Hadji, on count one of this action alleging breach of a written agreement, dated August 30, 2018 (agreement), that was entered into between the plaintiff and Snow, individually and on behalf of the defendant companies, and with respect to six special defenses and a counterclaim filed by the defendants. On appeal, the defendants claim that the trial court improperly (1) rejected their second special defense, in which they alleged, inter alia, that Snow did not have apparent authority to enter into the agreement on behalf of the defendant Finishers Court, LLC (Finishers Court), (2) determined that there was proper consideration to support the agreement as to each of the defendant companies, (3) rejected their contention that the interest charged under the agreement was unconscionable, (4) determined that the written agreement constituted the entire agreement between the parties, and (5) calculated damages by double counting the base amount of damages. We agree with the defendants’ last claim only and reverse the judgment in part.)
