What it does

Existing law generally regulates the terms and conditions of contracts for private works of improvement. Existing law requires that, within 45 days after the date of completion, as defined, retention proceeds withheld from any payment by the owner to the original contractor, or by the original contractor to any subcontractor, be released, except as specified. Existing law provides that, if a bona fide dispute exists between an original contractor and a subcontractor, the original contractor may withhold from the retention payment up to 150% of the disputed amount.
