Despite unsuccessful efforts in two New Jersey courts earlier this month for an emergency stay of a high-priority state road redecking contract awarded to China-linked CCA Civil Inc., rival bidder Conti Enterprises Inc., South Plainfield, N.J., will continue its legal fight, says a firm attorney.
Conti says the award violates a 2012 state law against contracts to firms that the U.S. government says have business ties to Iran, and that CCA Civil did not disclose that a Chinese state-owned firm is a key shareholder.
