Judge Sets February 2024 Trial in Project Codu Dispute vs. ATI

U.S. District Judge Jose Martinez for Southern Florida in Miami signed an order Monday (docket 1:23-cv-20009) scheduling a trial to begin during the two-week period starting Feb. 12 in Terra Towers’ breach of contract complaint against American Tower International. Terra and co-plaintiffs TBS Management and DT Holdings allege ATI improperly withdrew from an $800 million Latin American telecom tower project contract called Project Codu (see 2301030035). ATI moved to dismiss the complaint on grounds a contract was never in place for ATI to breach (see 2302010002). Mediation in the case is required, and Martinez gave the parties an Oct. 12 deadline for choosing a mediator, said the order. Mediation is to be completed by Dec. 11, it said.
