Merle Wood and Assoc., Inc v. Trinity Yachts, LLC

by
Merle Wood, a yacht-broker, appealed the district court's grant of summary judgment in favor of Trinity, a manufacturer and seller of yachts. Merle Wood sued Trinity for, among other things, quantum meruit and unjust enrichment. Merle Wood alleged that Trinity refused to pay for the fair, reasonable value of the benefit it provided in brokering a deal that led to Trinity selling two multi-million dollar yachts. The court held that Merle Wood's quantum meruit and unjust enrichment causes of action were time-barred under Fla. Stat. 95.11. Accordingly, the court affirmed the district court's grant of summary judgment in favor of Trinity. View "Merle Wood and Assoc., Inc v. Trinity Yachts, LLC" on Justia Law
