Reno Escrow (P) was assigned the right to collect payment for legal services rendered over a five-year period to Old West (D). P sought summary judgment for $6,836.89 from D for an account stated; D's failure to object to the legal bills was an inference that this was the correct amount. D contended that the bills were excessive; its alleged silence created only a rebuttable inference of an account stated. P was awarded a summary judgment. P appealed.
