Supreme Court of Alabama
Matador Holdings, Inc., D/b/a Davis-Dyar Supply Company v. Hopo Realty Investments, L.L.C. Hopo Realty Investments…
August 5, 201177 So. 3d 139
Summary
The court affirmed the denial of Matador’s unjust-enrichment claim because the evidence did not establish that HoPo knowingly accepted or unjustly retained a benefit supplied with a reasonable expectation of compensation. It reversed and remanded the materialman’s-lien ruling, holding that the lien was unenforceable against HoPo’s property because the tenant’s improvements violated material lease conditions governing construction and lien protection.
