50,000 Yuan Polyester Processing Fee: Second Creditor Wins Against Same Defaulting Manufacturer

A second polyester yarn processor who was owed 50,000 yuan by the same defaulting manufacturing company obtained an identical judgment, with the court once again relying on the defendant’s own debt schedule from a related case to confirm the outstanding amount.

Beginning in February 2010, this processor also provided polyester yarn processing services for the manufacturing company under a separate business arrangement. The working relationship lasted approximately two years before the company ceased making payments.

Following a settlement on January 19, 2012, the manufacturer confirmed it owed this processor 50,000 yuan in processing fees. Unlike the related case involving the same defendant, this plaintiff sought only the principal amount from the outset, without claiming any interest.

The manufacturer again failed to appear in court despite proper service, continuing its pattern of non-participation across multiple lawsuits. The processor submitted a single receipt as evidence, which referenced a 2011 remaining balance. The court independently verified this amount by examining the same debt schedule from the related case file, where the manufacturer had listed a 50,000 yuan obligation to this particular plaintiff.

The court confirmed the processing contract was valid and enforceable. Although the receipt’s title suggested a payment document rather than a debt acknowledgment, the content clearly referenced an outstanding balance, and the amount matched the manufacturer’s own recorded debt. The judgment ordered payment of 50,000 yuan within seven days, with double interest on delays and 525 yuan in court costs charged to the manufacturer. The two cases together revealed total unpaid processing debts of 75,000 yuan owed by the same company to two separate processors.
