Reference no: EM131377891
PLM, Inc., entered into an oral agreement with Quaintance Associates, an executive ‘‘headhunter'' service, for the recruitment of qualified candidates to be employed by PLM. As agreed, PLM's obligation to pay Quaintance did not depend on PLM actually hiring a qualified candidate presented by Quaintance.
After several months Quaintance sent a letter to PLM, admitting that it had so far failed to produce a suitable candidate, but included a bill for $9,806.61, covering fees and expenses. PLM responded that Quaintance's services were only worth $6,060.48, and that payment of the lesser amount was the only fair way to handle the dispute.
Accordingly, PLM enclosed a check for $6,060.48, writing on the back of the check ‘‘IN FULL PAYMENT OF ANY CLAIMS QUAINTANCE HAS AGAINST PLM, INC.'' Quaintance cashed the check and then sued PLM for the remaining $3,746.13. Decision?
