DECIDED OCTOBER 27, 1981.

Action on contract. Fulton Superior Court. Before Judge Etheridge.

Charles Ratz, for appellants.

W. Hensell Harris, Jr., for appellees.


This is an appeal by the defendants from a judgment for the plaintiff contractor in a suit to recover for breach of a subcontract. The case was tried without a jury. In ruling for the plaintiff, the court made no findings of fact, but merely concluded as a matter of law that the contract was valid, that the defendants were bound by it, and that the plaintiff had incurred $80,374.30 in damages as the result of the defendants' failure to perform. Held:

The judgment is vacated and the case remanded for entry of proper findings of fact and conclusions of law as to all material issues, as required by Code Ann. § 81A-152 (a). See Doyal Development Co. v. Blair, 234 Ga. 261 ( 215 S.E.2d 471) (1975); Spivey v. Mayson, 124 Ga. App. 775 ( 186 S.E.2d 154) (1971); Barkwell v. Helms, 137 Ga. App. 290 ( 223 S.E.2d 485) (1976).
