The answer is "it depends." It depends on the language of the Pay-If Paid clause in the subcontracts. You may consider hiring a Maryland attorney to review the subcontracts and give you an opinion as to whether they believe the Pay-If Paid clauses would be enforced by a Maryland Court. Please feel free to contact me for further assistance. Best of luck.
