Doris, an eighty-seven-year-old widow, collapsed while shopping at a store. She was taken to the Detroit city hospital by ambulance. She stayed there for fourteen days and was then transferred to another hospital, where she later died. She never regained consciousness. After she died, the hospitals and the ambulance company sued her estate to recover their expenses. Will Doris's estate be held liable for the medical bills?a. No, because she could not have entered a contract while she was unconscious.
b. Yes, because there was a quasi contract.
c. No, because there was no quasi contract.
d. Yes, because there was an actual contract.

The answer to this question is B  Yes, because there was a quasi contract.

Explanation:

A contract is a agreement between two parties which is enforceable by the law.

A quasi contract is that is created by the law or court order and not by an agreement made by the parties to the contract. It can be created when their is a dispute as regards payment for goods and services.

In the case of Doris, the ambulance company and Detroit city hospital,  Doris's estate will be held liable for medical bills because a quasi contract will be created to compensate the parties involve for the service rendered.  

Not the  major reason for creating a Quasi contract is to prevent one party from being unjustly enriched.  

Hence the answer is B: Yes, because there was a quasi contract.
