Question
I ordered a specific job from a graphic designer. After a long time without receiving the work, I asked her why she was delayed, and she did not respond. I gave up on her and turned to another designer who immediately prepared what I wanted. Later, the first designer sent me the completed file by email, which I no longer need. Do I have to pay the first designer?
Answer
Since she did not fulfill her obligation and you are not using the work, there is no obligation to pay her.
