Hypothetical question

Looking for advice on a legal issue. Here's what happened.

other party claiming force majeure. I've been dealing with this for about 6 weeks now and the situation isn't improving sadly.

The contract was signed 10 months ago. I have a copy of the original agreement. The total amount in dispute is approximately $77,000.

What's the typical outcome in situations like this?
