转包和违法分包人已经起诉发包人支付工程款的，实际施工人能否申请作为第三人参加诉讼或者另行起诉发包人在欠付工程款范围内承担责任？
By King & Wood
作者：肖玮 闫安然 孙玲 《建设工程司法解释（一）》第四十三条第二款是为了保护农民工等建筑工人利益所作的特别规定，该条规定赋予了实际施工人直接向发包人主张工程价款的权利，且发包人需要在欠付工程款的范围内，对实际施工人承担款项支付责任。 实践中，在发包人欠付工程款的情况下，转包和违法分包的承包人往往会直接向发包人提起诉讼，要求其支付款项，此时实际施工人是否能够再次另行单独向发包人主张权利，还是应当作为第三人参与到已有诉讼之中，本文就相关问题具体分析和讨论。 阅读更多

发包人与承包人已签订工程款结算协议，确定工程结算价款后，是否还可对该价款提异议？
By King & Wood
作者：武鹏 陈永昌 杨忠勤 结算协议是发包人与承包人对工程项目的工程价款、违约责任、索赔等事项终局性的解决和安排。《最高人民法院关于审理建设工程施工合同纠纷案件适用法律问题的解释（一）》第二十九条规定：“当事人在诉讼前已经对建设工程价款结算达成协议，诉讼中一方当事人申请对工程造价进行鉴定的，人民法院不予准许。”由此可见，一般情况下结算协议通常被视为双方对工程价款的最终确认，但在特定情形下，也可以对结算协议提出异议，本文就上述问题具体分析和讨论。 阅读更多
