Attorneys Yongseok Jang, Changhwan Park, and Yonghyun Han of One Law Partners, LLC successfully represented a public institution in a bid-rigging damages lawsuit, securing a full victory that reinforces the enforceability of Integrity Pacts in government contracts.   At the heart of the dispute was the Integrity Pact, a mandatory agreement in public procurement designed to prevent collusion, bribery, and other unfair practices. The defendants challenged the liquidated damages clause within the pact, arguing violations of the Act on the Regulation of Terms and Conditions and seeking deductions for VAT.

Key Legal Issues:
  • Whether the Integrity Pact’s liquidated damages clause could retroactively apply to earlier phases of a multi-year contract
  • Whether the Integrity Pact qualifies as a standard contract term under Korean law
  • Whether the government fulfilled its duty to explain the terms under the Act on Terms and Conditions
  • Validity and fairness of the liquidated damages clause
  • Whether VAT should be deducted from the damages amount
