Description

This case arises out of a contract dispute between the Native Village of Stevens (Stevens Village) and Alaska Management & Planning (AMP). A jury returned a verdict for AMP, finding that Stevens Village had breached the contract. On appeal, Stevens Village raises three grounds on which it believes the verdict should be set aside. First, it claims that this suit is barred by the doctrine of sovereign immunity. Second, it contends that the contract violated government procurement regulations and was therefore unenforceable. Finally, it contends that the contract was a personal service contract containing no definite term of duration and was therefore terminable at the will of either party. We conclude that Stevens Village does not have sovereign immunity. We further conclude that the second ground Stevens Village raises is meritorious. However, AMP is nonetheless entitled to a quantum meruit recovery. Because we find the contract unenforceable we do not reach the third ground raised by Stevens Village. We therefore reverse and remand for a retrial on the issue of damages.
