Question: Rental Management, Inc. demonstrated its computer software to Rent-A-PC, a computer rental business. Rent-A-PC discovered that the software needed to be modified for its business. Rent-A-PC agreed to Rental's charges and paid a deposit of $42,110. Rent-A-PC discovered that the software did not include the modifications it had requested.
It informed Rental it was going to stop implementation of the software and requested the deposit back. When Rental did not return the $42,110, Rent-A-PC sued alleging unjust enrichment. Rental claimed that because it had incurred costs in obtaining the software for Rent-A-PC, it was not unjustly enriched. Was it?
