Abstract
INTRODUCTION: In the 1980's, quantum meruit litigation appears to be governed by ipse dixit reasoning - the result is what the court says it is - because so much confusion exists concerning quantum meruit's terminology and method of analysis. The outcomes of quantum meruit cases are often inconsistent and unpredictable. The courts' analyses are at times incomprehensible.
