José IZQUIERDO, in His Official Capacity as Secretary of the Department of Transportation and Public Works; Puerto Rico Highway and Transportation Authority; Puerto Rico Public Buildings Authority; The Governor of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, in His Official Capacity; Fernando Fa-Gundo; Conjugal Partnership Fagun-Do-Doe; José Lluch-García; Conjugal Partnership Lluch-Doe; Conjugal Partnership Izquierdo-Doe, Defendants, Appellees (746 F.3d 21) strengthens a Construction Law answer because the case reflects the principle that The source does not provide a specific rule. The issue suggests the court may interpret the settlement agreements and apply contract law principles. Candidates should review the full opinion for the court's analysis. Applied to a problem question, the case should be used after identifying the issue as Whether the defendants breached settlement agreements with the construction company, and what remedies are available.
