Heading: Dismissal of Quantum Meruit or Quasi-Contract Claim.

Text: In its judgment, the district court found that Triple B's claim in quantum meruit or quasi-contract was identical to and indistinguishable from its contract claims. Triple B argues that this finding is erroneous and should be reversed on appeal. We have held supra that Section 60-13-30 bars an unlicensed contractor from bringing suit under a breach of contract theory or a quantum meruit or quasi-contract theory. See also Nickels v. Walker, 74 N.M. at 549, 395 P.2d at 682; Campbell v. Smith, 68 N.M. at 378, 362 P.2d at 526; Fischer v. Rakagis, 59 N.M. at 468, 286 P.2d at 315; Kaiser v. Thomson, 55 N.M. at 274, 232 P.2d at 144-45. Triple B's various claims are indistinguishable in this regard, and the district court did not err in dismissing its quantum meruit or quasi-contract claim.
