Such cases do, however, exist. In one fascinating case, the court found that the defendant had invented a device and fuel which would enable an automobile to run 400 miles to the gallon. The fuel could be manufactured for 1 cent per gallon. The defendant in a complicated transaction, stripped to its essentials, agreed to transfer a 49% interest in the process and control over its marketing for a sum of $50,000. Plaintiff's experts testified that the process was worth from $20,000,000 to $1,000,000,000. Specific performance was denied on the grounds of inadequacy of consideration.
