I hired a website designer to creat a site for my company. I did not make the final payment as per contract and the designer took the site down. Is this legal?

Re: websites

Well, it depends on the contract. What does the contract say? Also, was it a web design agreement only? Or was it also a web HOSTING agreement as well? If it was a web hosting agreement, you better believe they can take it down. That's like a lease. If it was a web DESIGN, then it will be governed by the contract, which probably has a provision for taking down the product in the case of non payment.
