There is not necessarily anything you need to do under Arizona law in this situation, although depending on the situation there may be some Prompt Pay Act issues. Whatever your remedies are against a non-performing subcontractor are almost always governed by the terms of the contract. If there is a lot of money at stake you should probably consult with a lawyer and let them read the contract and hear what the facts are. Please feel free to contact me to discuss.
