QUANTUM MERUIT (Lat. for " as much as he has de-served ")

This article appears in Volume V22, Page 709 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: PYR-RAY
QUANTUM MERUIT (Lat. for " as much as he has de-served ") , in the law of
contract
 , originally a form of action on the
case
 , grounded on a promise to pay the
plaintiff
  for
work
  done as much as it was
worth
 . It has been abolished as a
special
  form of action, but the
term
  is still in use where, in cases of
special
 
contract
 , there has been a breach amounting to a
discharge
  by one party before the other party has done all that he was bound to do. In such a
case
  the
plaintiff
  sues for a quantum meruit or the value of so much as he has done.
