Quantum Meruit And Building Contracts: Part Ii Does The Contract Price Put A Ceiling On A Recovery Via A Quantum Meruit?, Howard Hunter, J. W. Carter Jan 1989

Quantum Meruit And Building Contracts: Part Ii Does The Contract Price Put A Ceiling On A Recovery Via A Quantum Meruit?, Howard Hunter, J. W. Carter

Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law

The question posed by the title of this part of the article has been the subject of a substantial amount of commentary by American legal scholars and has been a central issue in a number of cases, almost all of them involving building contracts. The problem is easy to state: P and D have an agreement for P to construct a building for a total consideration of $X. When P is partially finished, D breaches. If the contract price and the value of the work to date roughly coincide, there is usually little problem in determining P's recovery. The standard …


Quantum Meruit And Building Contracts: Part I The Quantum Meruit Concept, Howard Hunter, J. W. Carter Jan 1989

Quantum Meruit And Building Contracts: Part I The Quantum Meruit Concept, Howard Hunter, J. W. Carter

Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law

The aim of this article is to discuss the restitutionary principles applicable to quantum meruit claims in building contracts. In the first part we consider the concept itself and identify the contexts in which such a claim is pursued. In the second part of the article, to be published in the next issue of the JCL, attention is directed, principally, to one issue, namely whether the contract price constitutes a ceiling on the amount recoverable under a quantum meruit claim following breach by the defendant.

Employment At Will: The French Experience As A Basis For Reform, Madeleine M. Plasencia Jan 1988

Employment At Will: The French Experience As A Basis For Reform, Madeleine M. Plasencia

Articles

Roughly one-quarter of the workers in the United States are represented by unions, leaving three-quarters subject to the vicissitudes of the employment-at-will doctrine.' At-will employees, as a general matter, lack protection against dismissal without cause.2 That is, an employer may dismiss an "at will" employee without notice, "for good reason, bad reason or no reason at all," so long as the proffered reasons for dismissal do not violate random whistle-blowing provisions or federal and state anti-discrimination statutes.' The mirror image of the employer's right to dismiss at will is the right of an employee who was hired to perform work …

Common Sense And Article 9: A Uniform Approach To Automobile Repossession, Darryll K. Jones Jan 1988

Common Sense And Article 9: A Uniform Approach To Automobile Repossession, Darryll K. Jones

Journal Publications

Clients who seek legal assistance earlier in the repossession process preserve their options, which may include preventing the repossession altogether, allowing the client an opportunity to reclaim the vehicle after repossession, or limiting the client's liability to the loss of the vehicle itself. Many of the actions considered by the attorney will be based on the provisions in Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code (U.C.C. or the Code). This article begins with a discussion of steps that may be taken to eliminate the need to resort to the U.C.C. Because these steps will not always be successful, the article …

A Seed Germinates: Unjust Discharge Reform Heads Toward Full Flower, Theodore J. St. Antoine

Articles

In this paper, I shall briefly review the nature and limitations of the theories most frequently invoked by the courts in dealing with wrongful dismissal.
