In a recently filed lawsuit in the New York Supreme Court, plaintiffs allege that certain defendants failed to deliver six out of a set of ten prints by Andy Warhol depicting Mao Zedong, for which the plaintiffs had allegedly paid in full.
In their Complaint, the plaintiffs — Marc Latamie and DM Fountain, Inc. — claim that they fully paid for the set of prints, yet Benrimon Contemporary delivered only four of the ten prints and, despite repeated demands spanning over a year and a half.
Moreover, the plaintiffs allege that Benrimon Fine Art was offering the same prints for sale to other potential purchasers after the plaintiffs had purchased the prints.
The plaintiffs have asserted causes of action for (i) breach of contract, (ii) tortious interference with contract, (iii) fraud, (iv) conversion, (v) promissory estoppel, and (vi) unjust enrichment.
