Design Cо., а 20-yeаr-оld rоcket compаny, hired Dan, an up-and-coming designer, to design a one-of-a-kind artistic logo to be used on their equipment and website. Design Co. specifically hired Dan after seeing a news article that covered Dan’s recent designs of unique logos for various companies that had contributed to their success. After discussing the work, Ed, the president of Design Co., and Dan signed a mutually-drafted handwritten contract, which states in its entirety: “Dan shall design a unique logo, which is to be registered for Design Co.’s sole use. Design Co. shall pay $75,000 upon completion of the work.” When Dan began work, he was surprised to learn that Design Co. had previously used over 100 different logos, which had not been disclosed during negotiations. When Dan complained, Ed told him this research was part of the designer’s responsibilities. Although Dan disagreed, he spent four weeks gathering as much information as possible regarding the former logos used. When Dan finished the logo, he submitted a bill for $78,000, having added $3,000 for labor and time for research. Design Co. sent a letter to Dan stating that no payment was yet due since the logo provided was notably like a logo they used 15 years ago. Design Co.’s letter also stated that it had recently spoken to several designers who perform similar work and confirmed that “research regarding former logos” was typically the designer’s responsibility. Dan sued Design Co. for breach of contract in the amount of $78,000. Design Co. countersued for specific performance to have Dan submit another logo for its approval. What damages is Dan likely to recover against Design Co.? Is Design Co. likely to prevail in its lawsuit seeking specific performance against Dan? Discuss.
