Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, First Department.

Decided March 3, 2022.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Olshan Frome Wolosky LLP, New York ( Kerrin T. Klein of counsel), for appellants-respondents/appellant.

The court properly dismissed the third cause of action for quantum meruit and the fourth for unjust enrichment. "The existence of a valid and enforceable written contract governing a particular subject matter ordinarily precludes recovery in quasi contract for events arising out of the same subject matter" (Clark-Fitzpatrick, Inc. v Long Is. R.R. Co., 70 N.Y.2d 382, 388 [1987]; see also id. at 389).
