LOGAN — One of the companies that has taken a Logan-based manufacturing firm to court over allegedly unpaid business debts has asked a judge to grant summary judgment in its favor.
As previously reported in The Logan Daily News, Sisecam Chemicals Resources, LLC filed suit in Hocking County Common Pleas Court March 1 against Logan Glass Technologies, LLC. The complaint alleged that Logan Glass Technologies, which had moved into and retrofitted the old Savant/GE Lighting plant on state Route 93 in Logan, had failed to pay for almost 300 tons of bulk soda ash, which is used in the manufacture of glass.
Other firms are known to be pursuing debt collection actions against Logan Glass Technologies as well.
Direct Energy Business, LLC and Direct Energy Business Marketing, LLC, also have a complaint pending in Hocking County against the local company, over allegedly unpaid bills for natural gas. And Savant Technologies, LLC, which once ran the plant that Logan Glass Technologies took over, is suing the company in Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Court over money it claims it is owed for multiple transactions including the sale of assets connected to the plant.
The sum at issue in the Sisecam complaint is over $173,000; in the Direct Energy complaint more than $664,000; and in the Savant suit, more than $422,000.
In a motion filed Monday by Sisecam, the company maintains that it has met all the legal requirements to prove a breach of contract by Logan Glass Technologies. It says it has shown, and Logan Glass Tech has admitted, that a contract to buy soda ash existed between the companies; that it delivered the soda ash as the contract required; and that Logan Glass Tech “readily admits” that it has failed to pay for some of the soda ash.
The motion asks for summary judgment in the amount of $173,517.99 plus interest.
