[Defective Windows] Cecelia hired a contractor, Paul, to put new windows in her home that she purchased herself from Good Windows. Unfortunately, Paul made a mess of the windows. While the windows were initially in good shape, Paul cracked some, scratched others, and did not get the windows properly fitted into their frames. Cecelia received a bill for the windows from Good Windows, but she refused to pay. Cecelia was told that Good Windows would file a lien, but she believed that there was no basis upon which a lien would be granted. Paul, who refused responsibility for any problems, also filed a lien after Cecelia refused to pay him.

In this scenario, Paul performed work on Cecelia's property by installing windows and has not been paid for his services.
