  1. UGC NET/SET LAW OPTIONAL MODEL SOLVED QUESTIONS 1. Quasi-contract emerged from: (a) Assumpsit (b) Indebitatus assumpsit (c) Non-feasance (d) Misfeasance [The history of quasi-contract can be followed back to the Middle Ages, under a practice that was referred to back then as indebitatus assumpsit. In that period, the law dictated that a plaintiff would receive a sum of money from the defendant, in an amount dictated by the courts, as if the defendant had always agreed to pay the plaintiff for his goods or services. Indebitatus assumpsit was a method used by the courts to make one party pay another as if a contract had been created between the two parties. The defendant's agreement to be bound by a contract that required compensation was implied by the law. The early days in the history of quasi contract saw such contracts being used to enforce obligations related to restitution]. Source: Legal Dictionary 2. Due to earthquake, a tenant died.
