 00-1122 -- Mangum v. Siegfried -- 03/14/2001
Siegfried's second argument relies on the last phrase of § 38-22-127(1): "for which such disbursement was made." Siegfried argues that the Bank of Boulder intended the $105,900 disbursement to pay for the land, not to pay subcontractors, and that the disbursement was therefore not made "for" the benefit of subcontractors.
Siegfried's last argument is that Siegfried Construction permissibly spent a portion of the remaining funds from the bank loans on payment of general operating expenses, and that such payment did not constitute a per se misapplication of funds.
Siegfried contends that the later event is the disbursement of funds to the contractor.
