Liquidated Damage Case Overblown

Radisson Hotels v. Majestic Towers

The Radisson case in regards to liquidated damages has been overblown. In this writer’s opinion, the essence of the decision simply upheld a specifically negotiated liquidated damages clause. Future royalties were only dragged into the argument as a means of computing the liquidated damages amount. Here's my commentary from when it first caused hysteria.
