A con­struc­tion com­pa­ny has lost its fi­nal ap­peal over al­most $12 mil­lion in ad­di­tion­al fees for a project it com­plet­ed for the Ur­ban De­vel­op­ment Cor­po­ra­tion of T&T (Ude­cott) two decades ago.

De­liv­er­ing a judg­ment, yes­ter­day morn­ing, five Law Lords of the Unit­ed King­dom-based Privy Coun­cil re­ject­ed Dip­con En­gi­neer­ing Ser­vices Lim­it­ed’s ap­peal against Ude­cott.

In the ap­peal, Dip­con claimed that High Court Judge Ricky Rahim and three Court of Ap­peal judges were wrong to dis­miss its claim in 2017 and 2023.
