Legal Question in Elder Law in Maryland

Misrepresentation?

I own an assisted living facility. I recently entered into a contact with the agency that assists in housing low income seniors in my City. I just learned that there is a moritorium on accepting any new seniors into the program. However, that information was not disclosed prior to entering into the contact. Is this misrepresentation, and if so, what remedies do I have?

Re: Misrepresentation?

This is NOT an Elder Law question but one based on contracts.

In my opinion it is misrepresentation if the other parrty knew this was a material facet of the negociation and failed to diclose the facts on purpose so as to induce you to contract. Not the easiest mater to prove and you really need to speak to a lawyer that handles contracts and contract litigation

Absebt having proof of that factor
