HARTZ, Circuit Judge,
concurring:
I join Judge Kelly’s opinion. I cannot reconcile Wahlco’s causation argument with the decision of the Kansas Supreme Court in Carrothers Construction Co. v. City of South Hutchinson, 288 Kan. 743, 207 P.3d 231 (2009), which held that a liquidated-damages provision in a contract is enforceable in accordance with its terms so long as those terms were reasonable at the time of execution of the contract, without the benefit of hindsight, see id. at 240-43.
