[T]here can be no unconscionable enrichment, no advantage upon which the law will frown, when the result is but to give one party to a contract only what the other has promised; particularly where, as here, the delinquent has had full payment for the promised performance.
Justice Stone, Groves v. John Wunder Co., 286 N.W. 235 (Minn. 1939). You see, lawyers don't have it so easy. Stuff like this is the best part of what we have to read all day long.

here here! I haven't seen or heard the word 'unconscionable' in a long, long time. Law School Rocks
:)
I find law to be boring at best. A lot of nonsensical words that are written, memorized by law students and meant to confuse the lay person. And who is a jury made up of? Nothing more than lay people that have no concept of what the law is and how to interpret it. So, I ask, "Why doesn't this country have lawyers be the jurors instead of lay people?" The answer: "Because then it would be much harder for the lawyers who finished at the bottom of their classes in law school to win their cases! Why you ask? Because they never could understand the nonsensical words written nor could they memorize them as law students. And after 3 years of law school, they still are as confused about the law as the lay person is. LOL
