The plaintiff failed to prove unjust enrichment because its case rested on untested hearsay and no contemporaneous original contracts, key witnesses with direct knowledge were not called without adequate explanation, and the only contemporaneous corporate minute contradicted the plaintiff's pleaded facts; the defendant's account was supported by contemporaneous documents and credible witnesses, therefore the claim was dismissed.
- Total failure of consideration
- Forgery and document authenticity
