Legal Question in Business Law in New Mexico

Our supplier of plastic syringes failed to invoice us for three straight months. Our accounts payable department pays bills when presented with an invoice. When we got all three today, they were back-dated to the original dates, and now they are refusing to ship because we are 90, 60 and 30 days late. Is that fair?

As a Franchise Attorney I suggest you pay the past bills and then move forward. You obviously knew something was going on with their invoices. You had received syringes for 3 months, but never an invoice. Who knows whether the problem was on their end or yours. In any event, it's an easy problem to solve. Consult with a good business or franchise attorney in your area for specific advice.
