Blasco v. Dadvar CA4/3
Eldon E. Blasco filed a lawsuit against Bahram Dadvar and Quicken Mortgage Corporation (Quicken) that asserted, among other things, a cause of action for breach of a fixed fee agreement and a separate cause of action for breach of a variable fee agreement. Following a bench trial, the trial court issued a lengthy statement of decision in which the court found that Blasco had met his burden of proving breach of the fixed fee agreement and awarded him $100,000. The court found that Blasco had not met his burden of proving breach of the variable fee agreement and awarded him nothing on that cause of action.
Dadvar and Quicken appealed from the judgment. They contend the trial court erred by awarding Blasco $100,000 because he had engaged in conduct for which a real estate broker’s or salesperson’s license was required. As Blasco was not duly licensed, Dadvar and Quicken argue he engaged in unlawful activity for which he could not recover.
