Complete relief definition

Complete relief means a reasonably adequate substitute for the damages available in a breach action. See William Green Constr. Co., Inc. v. United States, 201 Ct. Cl. 616, 622-26, 477 F.2d 930, 934-37 (1973) (contractor does not retain breach claim for improper default termination where convenience termination award available under contract provides "a full and permissible substitute for the award of damages under the former 'breach' claim"), cert. denied, 417 U.S. 909 (1974); Chaney & James Constr. Co., Inc. v. United States, 190 Ct. Cl. 699, 706-07, 421 F.2d 728, 732 (1970) (where contract clause is intended as substitute for action at law for breach, "the contractor should be entitled to get the same relief under the clause that he could get in the absence of the clause if he sued for breach of contract"); Gregory Lumber Co. v. United States, 9 Cl. Ct. 503, 517 (a claim arises under the contract "when there is a specific contractual clause through which the contractor can get 'all the relief to which it is entitled and asks'") (quoting Zidell Explorations, Inc. v. United States, 192 Ct. Cl. 331, 334, 427 F.2d 735, 737 (1970)). A contract provision affording complete relief serves to convert a breach claim into a claim "arising under" the contract and subject to the disputes clause.
