Software vendor sued its customer because the customer stopped paying the vendor during implementation. Customer filed a counterclaim asserting that the contract between the parties was unconscionable because, if enforced, it would provide a “gross disparity in the values exchanged.” In other words, customer would be required to pay, but vendor would not have to provide the software.
The court rejected customer’s argument and dismissed the claim of unconscionability. It observed that “[i]n essence, [customer’s] argument is that the Agreement is unconscionable because [vendor] did not perform on its promise to deliver software that could provide and perform certain functions. These are allegations supporting a claim for breach of contract, not unconscionability.”
