My HOA signed a contract with a trash company. The contract had a lot of blanks that are filled in by hand (rate, address, etc.) In the main contract language the HOA manager added a clause hand written in and initialed it. When I asked the trash company to send me the contract they sent it to me in PDF and it includes all mentioned above.
They are now saying that the clause that was hand written in is not valid because they did not initial it.
I contend that there are lots of things hand written in. The final signed version has that clause and it was the one that they had as the final version so its not like we had that version and they had a version without it.
Thoughts?
