Rule
When a contract has been substantially performed and the breach occurs near completion, the breaching party may not recover in quasi-contract for the value of services rendered in excess of the contract price; the contract rate governs.
Significance
Limits restitution recovery to contract price when performance is nearly complete; distinguished from cases of total breach at outset.
