Guilford v. In-Patient Consultants Mgt., Inc.
Plaintiff Steven Guilford is a software architect. In October 1999, he brought suit against Adam Singer, M.D. (Dr. Singer) and Dr. Singers companies, In-Patient Consultants, Inc. (IPC) and In Patient Consultants Management, Inc.[2](IPCM) (collectively defendants) for breach of an oral contract. Guilford had developed a software program for defendants and contended they had failed to fully pay him for his work.
Upon retrial, the jury awarded Guilford $2,972,394. Defendants appeal, arguing that, on retrial, Guilford impermissibly claimed to have created a much larger computer program for defendants than he claimed at the first trial. Defendants also argue there was no reasonable basis in the record for the sizeable award of damages. Court disagree and affirm.
