PRELIMINARY OBJECTIONS TO PLAINTIFF'S COMPLAINT Defendants, by and through their counsel, John P. Zeigler, Esquire and Swartz Campbell LLC, files preliminarily objections to the Complaint filed by Plaintiff, and in support aver as follows: The Complaint alleges a breach of contract however fails to state whether the purported agreement is oral or written as required per Pennsylvania Rule of Civil Procedure 1019 (h). 2. The Complaint fails to attach any alleged contract between the parties nor plead with specificity the terms of any alleged contractual relationship between the parties. 3. This failure is significant in part as Defendants believe no demand was proffered prior to Plaintiff's initiating the filing of a Complaint. 4. Plaintiff has failed to plead with specificity the "certain goods" that were purportedly received by Plaintiff and for which a $500.00 check was issued by Defendant Irish Restaurants, LP. 5. This failure is significant as Defendant's believes the promised goods were not in fact delivered by Plaintiffs. 6. Plaintiff has failed to plead with specificity that a check was issued for which there was not sufficient funds where rather their purported evidence only shows that payment was stopped. 7. Plaintiff has failed to plead with specificity that a check was issued that could not be honored. 8. Plaintiff has failed to plead with specificity how Defendant Tim Hogg misrepresented that he individually could pay for certain goods where the check was in the name of Irish Restaurants, LP. Wherefore, Defendants request judgment in favor of Defendants and against Plaintiff. Respectfully submitted, Swartz Campbell, LLC By: i Dated: April 9, 2012 Joo P.

Defendant Irish Restaurants LP d/b/a Coakley's Restaurant is a Pennsylvania limited partnership with a business address of 322 Equus Drive, Camp Hill, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania ("Defendant Coakley's). 3.

Defendant, Timothy Hogg, is an adult individual, with an address of 322 Equus Drive, Camp Hill, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania 17011 ("Defendant Hogg"). COUNT I- BREACH OF CONTRACT Plaintiff v. Defendant Coakley's 5. Plaintiff hereby incorporates paragraphs 1 through 4 as though fully set forth. 6. Defendant Coakley's requested that Plaintiff deliver goods (mainly produce, sauces, condiments, cheeses and dough as more fully set forth on the "Invoices") (herein, the "Goods") to Defendant Coakley's business location which is identified as Coakley's Restaurant, 305 Bridge Street, New Cumberland, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania 17070. 7. As a result of the request, Plaintiff and Defendant reached an agreement that Plaintiff would supply Goods and Defendant Coakley's would pay for the same within thirty (30) days. 8. The terms of agreement were outlined in a written Credit Agreement executed on December 23, 2008, by Defendant Coakley's and re-affirmed in the form of an invoice for each delivery of Goods (collectively, the "Invoices"). A copy of the Credit Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit "A". A copy of the first invoice is attached hereto as Exhibit "B" and a statement showing all outstanding Invoices is attached as Exhibit "C." All of the invoices are not being produced because of the quantity of invoices, but will be produced upon request. The invoices are dated between 2009 and 2011. 9. By accepting the Goods, Defendant Coakley's accepted the terms of the invoices. 10. As a result of such agreement, Defendant Coakley's would be billed for the Goods and would then pay them per the terms of the invoices. 11. Defendant Coakley's has refused and otherwise failed to make any payment of the outstanding invoices during the period as set forth on the invoices between 2009 and 2011. 12. Defendant Coakley's has breached its contractual duty to make payment for the Goods received. 13. As a direct and proximate result of Defendant Coakley's breach, Plaintiff has suffered an economic loss in excess of $48,227.69. 14. Defendant Coakley's has had a history with Plaintiff of failing to make payments in a timely manner and paying with checks that were either not honored or stopped from being honored. 15. Plaintiff has contacted Defendant Coakley's on several occasions about its failure to pay as evidenced by letters dated March 18, 2010, and June 8, 2011. A true and correct copy of each letter is attached hereto as Exhibits "D." WHEREFORE, based on the foregoing, Plaintiff respectfully demands judgment in its favor in the amount of $48,227.69, as of January 11, 2012, together with interest at 18% per annum, finance charges, costs, attorney fees, and any other remedy this Court may deem appropriate. COUNT II- QUANTUM MERUIT Plaintiff v. Defendant Coakley's 16. Plaintiff hereby incorporates paragraphs 1 through 15 as though fully set forth. 17. In the alternative, should an agreement not be found to exist as alleged above, Defendant Coakley's is liable to the Plaintiff and/or has been unjustly enriched in excess of $48,227.69 for the Goods. WHEREFORE, based on the foregoing, Plaintiff respectfully demands judgment in its favor in the amount of $48,227.69, as of January 11, 2012, together with interest at 18% per annum, finance charges, costs, and any other remedy this Court may deem appropriate. COUNT III - MISREPRESENTATION AND FRAUD Plaintiff v. Defendant Hogg 18. Plaintiff hereby incorporates paragraphs 1 through 17 as though fully set forth. 19. Defendant issued two checks dated February 11, 2010, in the amount of $7695.56 and March 1, 2010, in the amount of $5,958.20, that are similar to the check attached hereto as Exhibit «E„ 20.

On or about November 8, 2011, Defendant Hogg issued a check in the name of Irish Restaurants, LP to Plaintiff in the amount of $500.00. A true and correct copy of the redacted check is attached hereto as Exhibit "E." 21. The check was stopped from being honored. 22. It is believed and, therefore averred, that Defendant Hogg has issued a check that could not be honored. 23. It is believed and therefore averred, that Defendant Hogg knew or should have known that there was not sufficient funds when the check was issued. Y 24. Defendant Timothy Hogg has fraudulently misrepresented to Plaintiff that he could pay for certain goods received from Plaintiff on more than one occasion. 25. Plaintiff relied on the issuance of the checks by Defendant Hogg that a certain portion of the Goods would be paid for. WHEREFORE, Plaintiff demands judgment against Defendant Hogg in the total amount of $500.00, plus interest at 18% per annum, costs, attorney's fees and any other remedy this Court may deem appropriate.

CONFESSION OF JUDGEMENT I/We hereby irrevocably authorize and empower any prothonotary, clerk, or attorney of any court of record within the United States or elsewhere to appear for me/us and, with or without declaration, to confess judgement at any time or times against each, any or all of us and in favor of the Seller for the amount demanded by Seller to any Past Due Account under this Credit Application and Agreement, plus interest, costs of collection, and attorneys fees provided therein; and for so doing, this Agreement or a copy thereof, verified by affidavit shall be sufficient warrant. I/we hereby release all errors and expressly waive all rights to any stay of execution under any law or rule of court now in force or hereafter enacted. All of the foregoing promises are the joint and several promises of me/us and shall bind me/us, my/our heir, succession and assigns. I/we waive protest, demand and notice of nonpayment. The authority granted herein to confess judgment against me/us shall not be exhausted by any exercise of that authority, but shall continue from time to time and at all times until payment in full of all amounts hereunder.- Initial _ Initial DISCLOSURE A. I/we understand that the above constitutes a Confession of Judgment provision that would permit the Seller to enter judgment against me/us in court, after a failure to pay on demand any Past Due Account, without advance notice to me/us and without offering me/us an opportunity to defend against the entry of judgment. In executing the Agreement, being fully aware of my/our rights to advance notice and to a hearing to contest the validity of any judgment or other claims that the Seller may assert against me/us. I/we am knowingly, intelligently and voluntarily waiving these rights, including any right to advance notice of the entry of judgment, and I/we expressly agree and consent to the Seller's entering judgment against me/us by confession as provided for in this Confession of Judgment provision. B. I/we further understand that in addition to giving the Seller the right to enter judgment against me/us without advance notice or a hearing, this Confession of Judgment also contains language that would permit the Seller, after entry of judgment, to execute on the judgment by foreclosing upon, attaching, levying on, taking possession of or otherwise seizing my/our property, in full or partial payment of the judgment. Being fully aware of my rights to advance notice and a hearing after judgment is entered and before execution on the judgment, I/we am knowingly, intelligently and voluntarily waiving these rights, and I/we expressly agree and consent to the Seller's executing on the judgment, in any manner permitted by applicable state and federal law. C. I/we certify that a representative of the Seller specifically called this Confession of judgment to my/our attention. D. I/we hereby certify that my/our annual income exceeds $10,000; that I/we received a copy hereof at the time of signing.-.--Initial Initial Business name: Print Signed Name= / f A,.

Zeigler, Esquire SWARTZ CAMPBELL LLC 275 Grandview Avenue, Suite 104 Camp Hill, PA 17011 MARTSON LAW OFFICES By: M Price Ten East High Street Carlisle, PA 17013 (717) 243-3341 Dated: JOHN GROSS & COMPANY, Plaintiff V. IRISH RESTAURANTS LP, d/b/a COAKLEY'S RESTAURANT and PUB and TIMOTHY HOGG, Defendants. IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS OF CUMBERLAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA 2 :; rv __, ' - m ?,_- : -- 77 NO. 12-1379 - C C-- rQ 3 cn :. DEFENDANTS' PRELIMINARY OBJECTIONS TO PLAINTIFF'S FIRST AMENDED COMPLAINT Defendants, by and through their counsel, John P. Zeigler, Esquire and Swartz Campbell LLC, file preliminarily objections to Plaintiffs First Amended Complaint and in support aver as follows: Count I - Breach of Contract Plaintiff v. Defendant Coakley's 1. Plaintiffs First Amended Complaint avers a contractual agreement and breach of contract on the basis of a credit agreement and additional terms of multiple invoices over a three year period. 2. Plaintiff's pleading is legally insufficient as they have failed to demonstrate the existence of a contract or the essential terms of a contractual relationship between Plaintiff and Defendant, Irish Restaurants, LP. 3. Accordingly, Plaintiffs allegation of breach of contract is legally insufficient pursuant to Pa.R.C.P. 1028(a)(4). 4. In paragraph 7 of Plaintiffs First Amended Complaint, Plaintiff avers that the Plaintiff and Defendant "reached an agreement" after a request was allegedly made for a supply of Goods. SWARTZ CAMPBELL LLC ATTORNEYS AT LAW 5. Pursuant to Pa.R.C.P. 1028(a)(3), Plaintiff has failed to plead with specificity what person or persons requested delivery of goods, how any alleged agreement to any terms of payment or delivery were "reached" or any person acting on the part of Plaintiff. WHEREFORE, Defendants request that Count I of the First Amended Complaint be dismissed pursuant to a grant of Defendants' demurrer under Pa.R.C.P. 1028(a)(4), or in the alternative, that Defendants' preliminary objection under Pa.R.C.P. 1028(a)(3) be granted. Count II - Quantum Meruit Plaintiff v. Defendant Coakley's 6. Defendants hereby incorporate paragraphs 1 through 5 as though fully set forth herein. 7. Plaintiff pleads in the alternative under Count II that Defendants have been unjustly enriched. 8. Plaintiff's First Amended Complaint is legally insufficient as it has failed to plead with specificity how purported goods were either wrongfully secured or passively received by Defendant and what, if any, enrichment was secured by Defendant. 9. Accordingly, Plaintiff's allegation of unjust enrichment is legally insufficient pursuant to Pa.R.C.P. 1028(a)(4). WHEREFORE, Defendants request that Count II of the First Amended Complaint be dismissed pursuant to a grant of Defendants' demurrer under SWARTZ CAMPBELL LLC ATTORNEYS AT LAW Pa.R.C.P. 1028(a)(4). Count III - Misrepresentation and Fraud Plaintiff v. Defendant Hogg 10. Defendants hereby incorporate paragraphs 1 through 9 as though fully set forth herein. 11. In Count III, Plaintiff purports to allege an cause of action against Defendant Hogg under misrepresentation and fraud. 12. Pursuant to Pa.R.C.P. 1019(b), averments of fraud or mistake must be set forth with particularity. 13. In Count III, Plaintiff has failed to plead with particularity and specificity the certain goods that were purportedly received by Plaintiff and for which a $500.00 check was issued by Defendant, Irish Restaurants, LP. 14. This failure is significant as Defendants believe that goods specific to that $500.00 check were not in fact delivered to Plaintiff. 15. Plaintiff has failed to plead with particularity and specificity that a check was issued for which there were not sufficient funds. Rather, Plaintiff has only pled that checks "similar" to Exhibit "E" were allegedly returned for insufficient funds. 16. Accordingly, Plaintiff has failed to plead with particularity and specificity that where, when and which checks, if any, were issued that could not be honored. 17. Plaintiff has failed to plead with specificity how Defendant, Tim Hogg, misrepresented that he individually could pay for certain goods where SWARTZ CAMPBELL LLC ATTORNEYS AT LAW the alleged check was issued by Irish Restaurants, LP. 18. Plaintiff's misrepresentation and fraud claims against Defendant, Tim Hogg, are legally insufficient as they fail to aver how an individual could be liable for an alleged partnership obligation. 19. Further, Count III fails to cite any specific and particular misrepresentations, innocent or otherwise, that they allege were made by Defendant. 20.

IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS OF CUMBERLAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVAl No. I2-1379 CIVIL IN RE: DEFENDANTS' PRELIMINARY OBJECTIONS TO PLAINTIFF'S FIRST AMENDED COMPLAINT BEFORE HESS P.J. MASLAND J. and PECK J. OPINION and ORDER Before the court are the preliminary objections of Defendants Irish Restaurants LP, s Restaurant, and Timothy Hogg to an Amended Complaint filed by Plaintiff J & Company. (Defendants' Preliminary Objections to Plaintiffs First filed May 24, 2012). Plaintiff's Amended Complaint contains three counts: at I, ~ claim against Defendant Coakley's Restaurant for breach of contract; at Count II, a Defendant Coakley's for quantum meruit; and at Count III, a claim of fraud against Defendant Timothy Hogg. (Plaintiffs First Amended Complaint, filed May 202). The Amended Complaint has been preliminarily objected to in the form of a demurrer all (three counts, by way of a motion to dismiss Counts I and III for lack of specificity, and of a motion to dismiss Count III for reasons including the failure to conform to law or of ~ourt and the failure to plead a claim of fraud with the particularity required by of Civil Procedure 1019(b). (Defendants' Preliminary Objections to Plaintiff's Complaint, filed May 24, 2012). Plaintiff s Amended Complaint may be summarized as follows: Plaintiff is a food with a business address at 400 Cheryl Avenue, P.O. Box 1189, County, Pennsylvania 17055. (First Amended Complaint, ¶ 1). Defendant LP, d/b/a Coakley's Restaurant, is a Pennsylvania limited partnership with address of 322 Equus Drive, Camp Hill, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania 1701 Amended Complaint, ¶ 2). The General Partner of Irish Restaurants LP is Irish N LLC; a Pennsylvania limited liability company, with a registered office address Equus Drive, Camp Hill, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania 17011. (First ¶ 3). Defendant Timothy Hogg is an adult individual with an address of 322 Camp Hill, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania 17011. (First Amended Complaint, ¶ 4). This civil case arises out of a business relationship between the parties in which to supply to Defendant Coakley's Restaurant various restaurant-related goads, including, limited to, cheeses, dough, condiments, produce, sauces, coffee, and meats. (First ¶ 6; Ex. B). Plaintiffs Amended Complaint alleged that the parties entered into credit agreement whereby Plaintiff would supply its goods and Defendant would pay for the same within thirty days of receipt. (First Amended Complaint, ¶ A). Plaintiff averred that "the terms of agreement were outlined in a written executed on December 23, 2008, by Defendant Coakley's and re-affirmed in of an invoice for each delivery of Goods." (First Amended Complaint, ¶ 8). Attached s Amended Complaint at Exhibit A was a copy of the credit agreement, signed Hogg on behalf of Irish Restaurants, LP, and which provided, in pertinent part, TERMS AND CONDITIONS In consideration for the extension of credit and intending to be legally bound hereby, the undersigned Buyer hereby agrees that the following terms will govern any chazge account established by John Gross & Co. (Seiler) for Buyers benefit. 2 1. Payment. Buyer hereby agrees to pay the Time Sale Price of purchases charged to Buyers account. The Time Sale Price shall consist of the cash sale price including applicable sales tax and delivery charges, if any, plus service charges and any finance charge which may accrue pursuant to paragraph two (2) hereunder. 2. Past Due Accounts. Payment is due upon receipt. Failure to pay within 30 days of receipt ("the billing date") constitutes a default. Buyer hereby agrees that interest charges of 1 '/Z % per month or 18% per annum will be assessed on any account balance which is not satisfied within 30 days of the Billing date. 3. Seller's Remedies. In the case of Buyer's default, Buyer's entire account balance shall become due and payable. Seller's waiver of any Default shall not operate as a waiver of any other Default. If Buyer's account is referred for collection to an attorney, Buyer will pay, to the extent permitted by law, reasonable attorney's fees and court costs incurred. Amended Complaint, Ex. A). Attached to Plaintiff s Amended Complaint at Exhibit a copy of the first invoice issued by Plaintiff to Defendant Coakley's Restaurant and been signed upon receipt on behalf thereof; at Exhibit C, Plaintiff attached a all outstanding invoices due and owed, which totaled approximately $48,227.69. Complaint, ¶ 13, Ex. B, C). Because of the voluminous quantity of invoices, that not all of the invoices had been reproduced as attachments to the complaint be available upon request. (First Amended Complaint, ¶ 8). Plaintiff further averred Coakley's has refused and otherwise failed to make any payment of the during the period as set forth on the invoices between 2009 and 2011," and, as a has thereby "breached its contractual duty to make payment for the Goods received, in an economic loss to Plaintiff of $48,227.69. (First Amended Complaint, ¶¶ 11-13). Based on the foregoing, Plaintiff asserted at Count I a claim of breach of contract Coakley's Restaurant, and at Count II, in the alternative, Plaintiff set forth a claim meruit. At Count III, Plaintiff set forth a claim against Defendant Timothy Hogg and fraud, alleging that "Defendant [Hogg] issued two checks dated l l,j 2010, in the amount of $7695.56 and March 1, 2010, in the amount of $5,958.20, that to the check attached hereto as Exhibit E." (First Amended Complaint, ¶ 19). At Exhi E vas a scan of a check issued to John Gross and Company to be posted from an to "Timothy J. Hogg Irish Restaurants LP" in the amount of $500.00. (First int, Ex. E). The check indicated that payment had been stopped prior to the of funds. (First Amended Complaint, Ex. E). Plaintiff alleged that "[b]oth of the in Paragraph 19 were returned to Plaintiff for insufficient funds," and, averred that "Defendant Hogg knew or should have known that there was not when the check was issued." (First Amended Complaint, ¶¶ 20, 23). alleged that "Defendant Timothy Hogg has fraudulently misrepresented to Plaintiff he could pay for certain goods received from Plaintiff on more than one occasion," and relied on the issuance of the checks by Defendant Hogg that a certain portion of would be paid for." (First Amended Complaint, ¶¶ 24-25). Pursuant to Pennsylvania Rule of Civil Procedure 1028(a), preliminary objections may by any party to any pleading on several limited grounds, including the following: (2) Failure of a pleading to conform to law or rule of court ...; (3) Insufficient specificity in a pleading; (4) Legal insufficiency of a pleading (demurrer). v.P. 1028(a}(2), (3), (4). The standazd of review for preliminazy objections in this Commonwealth is well objections aze properly granted only when, "based on the facts pleaded, it is free from doubt that the complainant will be unable to prove facts legally sufficient a right to relief." Mazur v. Trinity Area School Dist., 599 Pa. 232, 240-41, 961 A.2d 10 ~ (2008) (internal citations omitted). In considering preliminary objections, "a11 4 and material facts averred in the complaint, as well as all reasonable therefrom, must be accepted as true." Wurth by Wurth v. City of Philadelphia, 136 P . 629, 638, 584 A.2d 403, 407 (1990). However, the trial court "need not accept as of law, unwarranted inferences from fact, argumentative allegations, or of opinion." Penn. Title Insurance Co. v. Deshler, 661 A.2d 481, 483 (Pa.Cmwlth. 1995). court will only reverse a trial court's ruling on a preliminary objection when "there an error of law or abuse of discretion." Excavation Technologies, Inc. v. Columbia Gas of 1pa., 2007 PA Super 327, ¶ 5, 936 A.2d 111, 113. Initially, Defendants seek the dismissal of Count I, breach of contract, based on (i) lack of specificity; and (ii) legal insufficiency. Pennsylvania is a fact pleading jurisdiction. Foster v. UPMC South Side Hosp., 2010 P 143, 2 A.3d 655, 666 (quoting Lerner v. Lerner, 2008 PA Super 183, ¶ 12, 954 A.2d 1 125). The plaintiff must state the material facts on which a cause of action is based "in and summary form." Pa.R.Civ.P. 1019(aj. It is well established that a plaintiffl must provide sufficient factual averments in order to sustain a cause of v. Hendrzal~ 2011 PA Super 34, 15 A.3d 937, 942. The complaint must "not only defendant notice of what the plaintiff's claim is and the grounds upon which it rests, but must also formulate the issues by summarizing those facts essential to support " Id. (internal citations omitted). Moreover, the complaint must be sufficiently specific the opposing party will know how to prepaze his defense. Commonwealth ex rel. Pappert Ph~rrmaceutical Products, Inc., 868 A.2d 624 (Pa.Cmwlth. 2005). Lastly, our Supreme Court that "the lower court has broad discretion in determining the amount of detail that must since the standazd of pleading set forth in Rule 1019(a) is inapplicable of 5 " United Refrigerator Co. v. Appplebaum, 410 Pa. 210, 213, 189 A.2d 253, 25 (1953). «(1, the A cause of action for breach of contract must be established by pleading the I the existence of a contract, including its essential terms, (2) a breach of a duty imposed contract and (3) resultant damages." Corestates Banl~ N.A. v. Cutillo, 723 A.2d 1053, 1 .1999). While not every term of a contract must be stated in complete detail, must be specifically pleaded. Id. at 1058. Applying the foregoing, Plaintiff has averred facts with sufficient specificity to sustain ; of action for breach of contract. Plaintiff has alleged that, on December 23, 2048, a was entered into by the parties by which Plaintiff was to extend credit to 's Restaurant for the purchase and procurement of Plaintiffs gods. The was attached to the Amended Complaint at Exhibit A and contained a section and Conditions" which outlined the rights and responsibilities of the parties, alia, that Defendant was to pay for goods received within thirty days of receipt. attached to its Amended Complaint a copy of the first invoice issued to was signed by a representative of Defendant, as well as a copy of the account all outstanding invoices. Additionally, Plaintiff has informed Defendants that all of not attached to the complaint aze available upon request. Accepting as true all material, and relevant facts alleged in the Complaint, and every inference that is reasonably deducible therefrom, we aze satisfied that Plaintiff has pled facts sufficient a cause of action for breach of contract and to enable Defendants to prepaze a As a result, Defendants' first preliminary objection seeking to dismiss Plaintiff's I f~r lack of specificity will be overruled. 6 The standard of review for a demurrer is well-settled: "[a] preliminary objection in of a demurrer is properly granted where the contested pleading is legally objections in the nature of a demurrer require the court to resolve the issues on the basis of pleadings, no testimony or other evidence outside of the complaint may to dispose of the legal issues presented by the demurrer." Strausser v. PRAMCO, PA Super 28, ¶ 12, 944 A.2d 761, 764-65 (internal citations omitted). A demurrer is ion that a complaint does not set forth a cause of action or a claim on which relief can "Lerner v. Lerner, 2008 PA Super 183, ¶ 11, 954 A.2d 1229, 1234 (internal "The question presented by the demurrer is whether, on the facts averred, the law certainty that no recovery is possible. Where a doubt exists as to whether a demurrer be sustained, this doubt should be resolved in favor of overruling it." Wawa, Inc. v. Alexander & Associates, 2003 PA Super 55, ¶ 2, 817 A.2d 543, 544 (quoting Price v. Brown, 216, 221, 680 A.2d 1149, 1151 (1966)). If any theory of law will support the claim by the complaint, dismissal is improper. Slaybaugh v. Newman, 330 Pa.Super. 216, 220, 4 517, 519 (1984). Applying the foregoing, we find that Plaintiff has properly set forth the of a breach of contract cause of action. Plaintiff has alleged that, on December a credit agreement was entered into by the parties by which Plaintiff was to extend to defendant Coakley's for the purchase of Plaintiff's goods. The credit agreement attached Amended Complaint at Exhibit A contained a section entitled "Terms and Conditions" the rights and responsibilities of the parties, including, inter alia, that Defendant was for goods received within thirty days of receipt. Plaintiff has alleged that goods to Defendant Coakley's, as referenced by the attached invoice and account that Defendant Coakley's stopped making payments for the invoices, resulting in 7 is loss of $48,227.69, plus interest. Thus, Plaintiff has set forth in its the existence of a valid contract, including its essential terms; a breach thereof; damages. For these reasons, Defendants' demurrer to Plaintiff's Count I, breach will be overruled. As to Count II, Defendants seek dismissal of Plaintiff's quantum meruit claim for of ~egal insufficiency. In its Count II of the Amended Complaint, Plaintiff raises the issue meruit as an alternative theory to recover damages incurred in conjunction with of restaurant goods to Defendant for which Plaintiff has not received meruit is aquasi-contractual equitable remedy where a contract is implied in law a tlkeory of unjust enrichment. Ragnar Benson, Inc. v. Bethel Mart Associates, 308 Pa. 40~, 414, 454 A.2d 599, 603 (1982). Although a claim for unjust enrichment is inappli a written or express contract exists, see Mitchell v. Moore, 1999 PA Super 77, ¶ 7, A.~d 1200, 1203, a plaintiff is expressly permitted to plead in the alternative under is Rules of Civil Procedure. See Pa.R.Civ.P. 1020(c); Lugo v. Farmers Pride, PA Super 5, ¶ 16, 967 A.2d 963, 970 ("We find that appellants may, indeed, plead of ~ction under... breach of contract, [and] in the alternative with a cause of action under of unjust enrichment."). Where unjust enrichment is found, the law requires to pay to the plaintiff the value of the benefit conferred. Schenck v. KE. David, Pa.Super. 94, 98, 666 A.2d 327, 328-39 (1995). The elements necessary to set forth a of ~niust enrichment are as follows: (1) benefits conferred on defendant by plaintiff; (2) appreciation of such benefits by defendant; and (3) acceptance and retention of such benefits under such circumstances that it would be inequitable for defendant to retain the benefit without payment of value. The application of the doctrine depends on the particular factual circumstances of the case at issue. In determining if the doctrine applies, our focus is not on the intention of the parties, but rather on whether the defendant has been unjustly enriched. 8 1999 PA Super 77, ¶ 8, 729 A.2d at 1203-04 (quoting Schencl~ supra, 446 Pa.Super. 97; X666 A.2d at 328). The Plaintiff has properly asserted the elements required to make out a cause of action rneruit. Although recovery on Plaintiffs Count II would be precluded by a Count I, Plaintiff is permitted under the Pennsylvania Rules of Civil Procedure to inconsistent and alternative causes of action. Plaintiff's Amended Complaint avers conferred benefits upon Defendant, specifically, restaurant goods with a value in of X48,000; that Defendant appreciated and realized the benefits provided, as evidenced by on each delivery invoice; and that Defendant accepted and retained the goods in ~uch a manner in which it would be inequitable for Defendant to retain the goods of value. Thus, Plaintiff has properly asserted a cause of action for quantum if subsequently proven, would been entitled to recovery. For these reasons, to Plaintiff s Count II will be overruled. Lastly, Defendants seek the dismissal of Count III, misrepresentation and fraud, based grounds: (i) the failure to plead fraud with the requisite particularity and specificity; and (i insufficiency, in which Defendants' contend that Defendant Hogg cannot be liable in capacity for an alleged partnership obligation. Pennsylvania Rule of Civil Procedure 1019(b) provides that "[a]verments of fraud . . be averred with particularity," Pa.R.Civ.P. 1019(b), and preliminary objections to challenge allegations of fraud where a complaint fails to meet the of Rule 1019(b). McGill v. Southwark Realty Co., 828 A.2d 430, 436 (Pa. ). Our Supreme Court has explained the particularity requirement as follows: Averments of fraud are meaningless epithets unless sufficient facts are set forth which will permit an inference that the claim is not without foundation or offered 9 simply to harass the opposing party and to delay the pleader's own obligation.... The pleadings must adequately explain the nature of the claim to the opposing party so as to permit him to prepare a defense and they must be sufficient to convince the court that the averments are not merely subterfuge. York State Elec. & Gas Corp. v. Westinghouse Elec. Corp., 387 Pa.Super. 537, 553, 919, 927 (1989) (quoting Bata v. Central-Penn National Bank of Philadelphia, 423 373, 379-80, 224 A.2d 174 (1966)). While it remains impossible to establish precise standards as to the degree of by Rule 1019(b), Pennsylvania courts have consistently mandated that two conditions be ~iet in order to satisfy the requirement: "(1) the pleadings must adequately explain the of t~e claim to the opposing party so as to permit the preparation of a defense, and (2) they be sufficient to convince the court that the averments are not merely subterfuge." Martin Battery Co., Inc., 530 Pa. 11, 18, 606 A.2d 444, 448 (1992). In order to maintain a cause of action for fraud, a plaintiff must allege the (1) a representation; (2) which is material to the transaction at hand; (3) made knowledge of its falsity or recklessness as to whether it is true or false; (4) with the intent another into relying on it; (5) justifiable reliance on the misrepresentation; and (6) injury was proximately caused by the reliance. Bortz v. Noon, 556 Pa. 489, 499, 555, 560 (1999). With these standards in mind, and after review of Plaintiff s Amended Complaint in of (all reasonable inferences deducible therefrom, we find that Plaintiff has not pled to support a cause of action for misrepresentation and fraud, thus making its Count deficient. In its claim of fraud, Plaintiff alleges that Defendant Hogg issued two to ~'laintiff on behalf of Irish Restaurants, LP, with face values of $7,695.56 and $5,95 were subsequently dishonored due to "insufficient funds," and one check with a face 10 of 5(}0.00 which was later "stopped from being honored." Plaintiff thereafter contends that "[i is telieved and, therefore averred, that Defendant Hogg has issued a check that could not " and, furthermore, "[i]t is believed and therefore averred, that Defendant Hogg knew have known that there was not sufficient funds when the check was issued." With Plaintiff sums up the whole of its allegations of fraud as follows: 24. Defendant Timothy Hogg has fraudulently misrepresented to Plaintiff that he could pay for certain goods received from Plaintiff on more than one occasion. 25. Plaintiff relied on the issuance of the checks by Defendant Hogg that a certain portion of the Goods would be paid for. Amended Complaint, ¶¶ 24-25). Although Plaintiff asserted that it "relied" on the issuance of the subsequently it fails to state the resulting injury that was proximately caused by the reliance. In to State a cause of action for fraud, Plaintiff is required to establish that it justifiably relied on and thereafter suffered injury as a result. Nowhere in Plaintiff s fraud count of facts. has Plaintiff alleged that it took action or refrained from taking action on Defendant Hogg's issuance of the three checks, assuming, of course, that iss~ance of the checks constituted a "misrepresentation" within the definition of fraud. no mention of any goods or services which may have been provided as a result of of the checks, or any other harm, other than its breach of contract damages, which after receiving the checks. Quite simply, Plaintiff's count of fraud lacks ity required by Rule 1019 and our precedent. For these reasons, objection to Plaintiff's Count III, misrepresentation and fraud, will be sustained, will be given leave to amend, if so desired, to plead such a claim as is consistent wi foregoing discussion. Because we will sustain Defendants' preliminary objection on is of a lack of particularity, we do not reach the issue of Defendant Hogg's individual liabili 11 .. it in tie context of a partnership obligation. In any event, this issue, though perhaps a cannot be resolved on preliminary objections. To reflect the foregoing, the following order will be entered: ORDER AND NOW, this ~~day of August, 2012, upon consideration of Defendants' to Plaintiff s First Amended Complaint, and after oral argument, heard July 13, 20 the Preliminary Objections of Defendants are SUSTAINED in part and OVERRULED in part.
