ORDER AND JUDGMENT *
BRISCOE, Circuit Judge.
Defendant American Biomedical Group, Inc., (ABGI) appeals from a final judgment, entered after a jury verdict, awarding plaintiff McCurdy Group, LLC, (MG) $228,406.82 on its claim for breach of contract, and $148,800.00 on its claim for quantum meruit. ABGI has also filed a separate appeal challenging the district court’s award of attorney fees in favor of MG. We exercise jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291 and affirm.
I.
Dave McCurdy is a former Oklahoma Congressman, having served in the United States House of Representatives from 1980 until January 1995. In March 1995, McCurdy formed MG, a Virginia limited liability company, with its principal office [825] and place of business in Virginia. McCurdy’s intent was for MG “to be a business consulting and investment group,” and “not a lobbying group” or “a political group.” Aplt.App. (00-6183) at 218.
On April 7, 1995, McCurdy, on behalf of MG, signed a written agreement with ABGI, an Oklahoma corporation with its principal office and place of business in Oklahoma. ABGI provided hospitals and other healthcare providers with systems to reduce equipment maintenance expenses. Prior to entering into the agreement with MG, ABGI had unsuccessfully attempted to obtain contracts with federally-run hospitals. ABGI’s purpose in entering into the agreement with MG was to have MG assist in marketing ABGI’s products and services to federal government officials.
The April 7 agreement between MG and ABGI stated that McCurdy would become a director of and consultant to ABGI. In return for his role as director, McCurdy was to receive an annual fee of $24,000. MG was to perform the following services for ABGI:
(1) establish an office for ABGI in the Washington, D.C. area;
(2) provide and direct a marketing strategy and effort to secure additional business for ABGI with the Veterans Administration (VA), other hospitals under the Department of Defense (DOD), Indian Health Services, and other public, government, and private sector hospitals identified in advance and agreed to by ABGI and MG;
(3) consult with Jim Burgess and ABGI regarding long-range planning, capital information, potential mergers and acquisitions, and future public offering or sale of ABGI;
(4) perform such other duties and services as may be requested by ABGI and agreed to be performed by MG; and
(5) report no less than monthly on its efforts in fulfilling the above-outlined contractual obligations.
Aplee.App. (00-6183) at 299-300. MG was to receive the following compensation:
(1) a marketing/consulting fee equal to 2.0% of the VA/DOD and other identified contract business obtained and completed by ABGI and entered into by ABGI during the term of the contract or any extension thereof and renewals of these contracts;
(2) a monthly office and staff overhead fee of $16,600; and
(3) reimbursement of out-of-pocket travel and business expenses.
Id. at 301-02. In addition, MG was granted an option to acquire up to 5% of the outstanding common stock of ABGI, either by purchase of such stock or by waiver of MG’s consulting/marketing fee on an equal dollar-waived to dollar-acquired basis. Lastly, the contract provided that either party could terminate the contract upon 120 days’ written notice.
Upon signing the agreement, both parties began performing their respective obligations. In particular, McCurdy and MG began efforts to market ABGI’s products and services to various government officials and organizations (e.g., VA hospitals located on the east coast). In return, ABGI helped establish an office for MG in Washington, D.C., and began paying MG the amounts of compensation set forth in the agreement (except for the director’s fee to be paid to McCurdy). ABGI continued to make payments to MG through June 1996, when the payments from ABGI to MG ceased. According to McCurdy, the only reason given by Burgess for ABGI’s failure to pay was cash flow problems, and that at no time did Burgess or anyone else at ABGI indicate the parties’ written agreement had been terminated.
[826] Notwithstanding ABGI’s failure to pay, MG continued to perform its obligations under the written agreement. Indeed, MG continued to market ABGI’s products and services to potential customers through approximately August 1997. Beginning in the fall of 1996 and continuing into August 1997, MG repeatedly asked ABGI why payments had not been made under the agreement and, according to McCurdy, Burgess repeatedly attributed the failure to ABGI’s alleged cash flow problems. ,
MG filed this diversity action on July 1, 1997, and the case proceeded to trial in April 2000. At the conclusion of all the evidence, the jury returned a verdict in favor of MG on its claim for breach of contract and awarded MG damages in the amount of $228,406.82. The jury also returned a verdict in favor of MG on its claim for quantum meruit and awarded MG damages on that claim in the amount of $148,800. The district court granted MG’s request for attorney fees in the amount of $221,921.51, but denied its request for prejudgment interest.

No. 00-6183
Quantum meruiN-jury instructions
According to the record, MG’s primary theory at trial was that the April 7 agreement was not terminated until after this lawsuit was filed and that ABGI was therefore liable for damages under the agreement through that time period. The district court, however, chose to instruct the jury that a breach of contract on the part of ABGI (e.g., failure to pay MG) would result in triggering the 120-day notice provision and the ultimate termination of the contract.1 Apparently concerned whether this instruction was correct, and also concerned that this would limit the amount of damages recoverable by MG, the district court allowed MG to pursue, in addition to its breach of contract claim, a quantum meruit theory under which the jury could award MG damages for any services that MG rendered to ABGI after termination of the contract.
ABGI contends it was improper for the district court to permit MG to recover on its quantum meruit claim. According to ABGI, quantum meruit is only appropriate where there is no contract in place covering the transactions at issue. Here, ABGI argues, MG should have been limited to damages that accrued during the 120-day notice period set forth in the parties’ written agreement2 and should not have been permitted to recover any damages that accrued after that period.
We review de novo the question of whether the district court’s jury instructions, considered as a whole, correctly stated the governing law and provided the jury with an ample understanding of the issues and applicable standards. Brown v. Gray, 227 F.3d 1278, 1291 (10th Cir.2000). Since this is a diversity action, the question is whether the district court’s jury [827] instructions correctly stated the governing standards under Oklahoma law. See generally Wood v. Eli Lilly & Co., 38 F.3d 510, 512 (10th Cir.1994) (“A federal court sitting in diversity must apply the law of the forum state, in this case Oklahoma, and thus must ascertain and apply Oklahoma law with the objective that the result obtained in the federal court should be the result that would be reached in an Oklahoma court.”).
Oklahoma law recognizes a legal action for quantum meruit. “[T]he common law doctrine of ‘quantum meruit’ ... is founded on a Latin phrase meaning, ‘as much as he deserves,’ and in law has been defined as ‘a legal action grounded on a promise that the defendant would pay to the plaintiff [for his services] as much as he should deserve.’ ” Martin v. Buckman, 883 P.2d 185, 193-94 (Okla.Ct.App.1994). “Where a person performs services without a written contract, the law implies an agreement to pay what is reasonable, meaning thereby what he reasonably deserves.” Brown v. Wrightsman, 175 Okla. 189, 51 P.2d 761, 763 (1935).
It is true, as noted by ABGI, that the Oklahoma Supreme Court has held “the rule of ‘quantum meruit’ applies only where there is no express contract.” Brown, 51 P.2d at 763. ABGI, however, reads too much into this holding. Contrary to ABGI’s arguments, Oklahoma law does not appear to preclude a plaintiff from recovering under a quantum meruit claim, even though the plaintiff had an express contract with the defendant, as long as the quantum meruit claim involved obligations outside the scope of the express contract. Although there are no Oklahoma cases directly on point, the Oklahoma Supreme Court has indicated, in dicta, that a quantum meruit action can be brought “despite the existence of an express contract,” and that evidence of the express contract can be admitted “as a circumstance indicating” the “value of the services” rendered by the plaintiff to the defendant. Reynolds v. Conner, 190 Okla. 323, 123 P.2d 664, 668 (1941); see also Shumaker v. Hazen, 372 P.2d 873, 875 (Okla.1962) (“ ‘There cannot be an express and an implied contract for the same thing existing at the same time.’ ”). Cases from other jurisdictions, although not controlling here, support this conclusion. E.g., Turner Assoc., Inc. v. Small Parts, Inc., 59 F.Supp.2d 674, 683 (E.D.Mich.1999) (concluding plaintiff, who sought to recover post-termination commissions, would be foreclosed from doing so under a quantum meruit theory “only if it is first established that a valid and enforceable contract governed defendant’s payment of post-termination commissions”); Mary Matthews Interiors, Inc. v. Levis, 208 A.D.2d 504, 617 N.Y.S.2d 39, 41 (N.Y.App.Div.1994) (“Recovery in quantum meruit is not warranted when the services rendered by the plaintiff were required by the terms of an express contract between the parties.”); Gen. Homes, Inc. v. Denison, 625 S.W.2d 794, 797 (Tex.App.1981) (indicating that a person can recover, under a quantum meruit theory, the reasonable value of services rendered outside the scope of an express contract).
The district court’s jury instructions were consistent with these general principles. The district court’s initial instruction on the theory of quantum meruit informed the jury that, “[i]n appropriate circumstances, a party may have an obligation to pay another party for services rendered, even where there is no actual contract requiring payment.” ApltApp. at 179 (Instruction 34). This same instruction further informed the jury that MG was seeking to recover under a theory of quantum meruit “for services rendered after the date of termination of the contract.” Id. In its second quantum meruit instruction, the district court informed the jury that, “[i]f you find that plaintiff con[828] tinued to render services to defendant after the date of termination of the contract, plaintiff may recover under the doctrine of quantum meruit for the reasonable value of those services.” Id. at 181 (Instruction 35). More specifically, the instruction stated:
Plaintiff is here claiming that it should be compensated for services reasonably provided after the date of termination. As I will explain later, you must determine when the contract was breached and consider the date of termination of the contract to be 120 days past that date. With respect to this theory of quantum meruit recovery, you must limit your consideration to services rendered after the date you decide was the date of termination of the contract.
Id. at 182. In short, the district court’s jury instructions limited MG’s recovery on its quantum meruit theory to the reasonable value of services it rendered to ABGI outside the scope of the parties’ written agreement (i.e., those services rendered to and accepted by ABGI after expiration of the 120-day notice period).
Quantum meruit — sufficiency of evidence
ABGI contends that, even if it was proper for the district court to allow MG to proceed on its quantum meruit claim, the evidence presented at trial was insufficient to support the jury’s damage award in favor of MG. More specifically, ABGI contends “[t]here was insufficient evidence presented at trial to establish that [MG] conferred benefits on ABGI after October 1996 [the expiration of the 120-day notice period] to justify” the jury’s award “of $18,600 per month ($16,600 for overhead expenses and $2,000 for director’s fees) ... from October 1996 to July 1997.” Aplt.Br. at 16. According to ABGI, McCurdy was never a director of ABGI and thus was never entitled to a director’s fee. Further, ABGI argues that “overhead expenses” are not recoverable under a theory of quantum meruit.
We “review a damage award challenged on the basis of insufficient evidence under a clearly erroneous standard, ‘viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the prevailing party.’ ” Vining v. Enter. Fin. Group, Inc., 148 F.3d 1206, 1216 (10th Cir.1998) (quoting Rainbow Travel Serv., Inc. v. Hilton Hotels Corp., 896 F.2d 1233, 1239 (10th Cir.1990)). We will “affirm the judgment below if there is substantial evidence tending to support the jury’s damage award.” Id.
There are two procedural problems that prove fatal to ABGI’s argument. First, although it appears that ABGI moved for judgment as a matter of law at the conclusion of MG’s evidence and again at the conclusion of all the evidence, it did not file any type of post-trial motion challenging the jury’s damage award on the quantum meruit claim (e.g., motion for remittitur or new trial on the issue of damages). Thus, the specific issue ABGI now seeks to assert was not raised in the district court and it has been waived for purposes of appeal. See Walker v. Mather, 959 F.2d 894, 896 (10th Cir.1992). Second, even if ABGI’s motion for judgment as a matter of law was somehow sufficient to preserve the issue for purposes of appeal, ABGI has failed to provide the court with a sufficient record to decide the issue. Tenth Circuit Rule 10.1(A)(1)(a) provides that “[w]hen sufficiency of the evidence is raised, the entire relevant trial transcript must be provided.” Here, however, ABGI has included only selected excerpts from the trial transcript.3
[829]
Legality of the parties’ agreement
ABGI contends the district court erred in denying its motion for judgment as a matter of law on the issue of whether the parties’ written agreement was illegal. In ruling on cross motions for summary judgment in which each party sought summary judgment on the question of whether the contract at issue was an illegal contract under 41 U.S.C. § 254(a), the district court concluded the challenged contingent fee provision was illegal “unless it is found that MG is excepted from Section 254(a) and a bona fide established commercial or selling agency maintained by ABGI for the purpose of securing business.” Order filed Aug. 11, 1999, at 3. According to ABGI, the agreement violated § 254(a) and was therefore invalid because (1) it provided for the payment of a commission to MG for the procurement of government contracts, and (2) MG did not qualify as a bona fide established commercial or selling agency.
“We review de novo a district court’s disposition of a motion for judgment as a matter of law, applying the same standard as the district court.” Ballard v. Muskogee Reg’l Med. Ctr., 238 F.3d 1250, 1252 (10th Cir.2001). Judgment as a matter of law “is warranted only if the evidence points but one way and is susceptible to no reasonable inferences supporting the party opposing the motion.” Id.
Again, ABGI’s failure to provide a complete copy of the trial transcript prevents our review. As previously noted, ABGI has included in its appendix only selected excerpts from the trial transcript. Although MG has filed its own appendix which includes additional excerpts, we do not have a complete record of the trial and it'is impossible to determine from the record on appeal all of the evidence that was presented at trial.4
District court’s ruling that April 7 agreement constituted a final, enforceable contract
On the first day of trial, prior to commencement of ABGI’s case, the district court conducted an evidentiary hearing on MG’s motion in limine to exclude evidence of oral statements regarding terms extrinsic to the April 7 agreement. At the conclusion of the hearing, the district court concluded, as a matter of law, that the April 7 agreement was a valid enforceable contract. Accordingly, the district court granted MG’s motion in limine and subsequently instructed the jury that the agreement was a valid enforceable contract. On appeal, ABGI contends the district court erred in finding as a matter of law that the parties’ April 7 agreement constituted a final, enforceable contract. According to ABGI, the issue should have been submitted to the jury for consideration (ABGI contends the April 7 writing was merely a preliminary letter of intent that required further finalization to be effective).
[830] In concluding that the agreement was an enforceable contract, the district court was acting upon MG’s motion in limine and deciding whether Oklahoma’s parol evidence rule would prohibit ABGI’s introduction of oral statements made by the parties prior to signing the agreement. In a diversity case such as this, the so-called “substantive” state rules of evidence, including the forum state’s parol evidence rule, apply. Blanke v. Alexander, 152 F.3d 1224, 1231 (10th Cir.1998). We apply a de novo review. See Betaco, Inc. v. Cessna Aircraft Co., 32 F.3d 1126, 1131 (7th Cir.1994); Brinderson-Newberg Joint Venture v. Pacific Erectors, Inc., 971 F.2d 272, 277 (9th Cir.1992); United States Fire Ins. Co. v. Gen. Reinsurance Corp., 949 F.2d 569, 571 (2d Cir.1991).
Oklahoma’s parol evidence rule provides that “[t]he execution of a contract in writing, whether the law requires it to be written or not, supersedes all the oral negotiations or stipulations concerning its matter, which preceded or accompanied the execution of the instrument.” Okla. Stattit. 15, § 137. Applying the rule, the Oklahoma Supreme Court has indicated that “[w]here ... a contract is complete in itself and, when viewed as a totality, is unambiguous, its language is the only legitimate evidence of what the parties intended. That intention cannot be determined from the surrounding circumstances, but must be gathered from a four-corners’ examination of the instrument.” Lewis v. Sac & Fox Tribe of Okla. Hous. Auth., 896 P.2d 503, 514 (1994).
After reviewing the April 7 written agreement, we agree that it constitutes a final, enforceable contract. The agreement sets forth in detail what it describes as the “essential terms” to which the parties agreed, including the nature of the relationship between the parties (i.e., that McCurdy “will become a Director and Consultant to ABGI” and that MG “will be granted an option to purchase” the stock of ABGI, Aplt.App. at 26), the term of the agreement (five years, subject to the right of either party to terminate), the services to be performed by MG on behalf of ABGI (e.g., establishing an office in the Washington, D.C. area, performing marketing activities), the compensation to be paid by ABGI to MG and McCurdy,5 MG’s option to purchase stock of ABGI, the conditions under which a party could terminate the agreement, and confidentiality and non-compete provisions. Perhaps most importantly, the agreement expressly states that it “supersedes all previous discussions and agreements and is the entire Agreement between the parties.” ApltApp. at 29. Lastly, the agreement contains the signatures of Burgess (on behalf of ABGI) and McCurdy (on behalf of MG).
Discovery dispute — computer and disc drives
ABGI contends the district court abused its discretion in refusing to order MG to return to ABGI computer and disc drives that ABGI supplied to MG at the start of the parties’ relationship. We apply an abuse of discretion standard in reviewing a district court’s denial of a motion to compel discovery. See Munoz v. St. Mary-Corwin Hosp., 221 F.3d 1160, 1169 (10th Cir.2000).
[831] During discovery, ABGI requested that MG “[pjroduce all computer disc drives, including back-up computer disc drives for plaintiff from 1995 to the present.” Aplt. App. at 95. MG objected on the grounds that the request was “overly broad and unduly burdensome” and would require the disclosure of confidential communications (e.g ., letters from MG to its counsel) and other communications unrelated to ABGI or the lawsuit. Id. at 99-100. Subject to these objections, MG agreed to produce a copy of the printouts from McCurdy’s hard drive for nonprivileged documents related to ABGI, plus a zip drive of those same documents.
Dissatisfied with MG’s response, ABGI moved to compel production of the computer disc drives. In support of its motion, ABGI asserted that it should be permitted to examine the disc drives to determine whether they contained any memoranda referring to Burgess’ March 6, 1996, letter, which MG denied receiving. ABGI also asserted that it should be permitted to examine the disc drives to determine whether they contained any “memoranda or correspondence” to ABGI’s competitors. Id. at 100-01. Finally, ABGI asserted that it was the owner of the computer equipment and that MG had agreed to return the equipment after the conclusion of the lawsuit. In its response, MG asserted that it had “produced a printout of all of the documents on Dave McCurdy’s hard-drive which related to his work for ABGI,” and had also granted ABGI permission to inspect a “zip-drive ... taken directly from Dave McCurdy’s computer.” Aplee.App. at 18. MG further asserted that it had agreed to produce the requested disc drives to a third party (Tri Logic Systems, Inc., of Grand Prairie, Texas) for inspection. Id. at 19-20. Finally, MG asserted that the disc drives contained “substantial information protected by the attorney-client and trade secret privileges.” Id. at 20-21.
The magistrate judge denied ABGI’s motion after a hearing. ABGI filed written objections to the magistrate judge’s order. The district court denied ABGI’s objections, concluding that ABGI had “failed to show that the [magistrate judge’s] order was either clearly erroneous or contrary to law.” Aplee.App. at 82. The district court noted that “the deadline for designation of trial exhibits ha[d] passed and [ABGI] failed to list the ... computer equipment as exhibits.” Id.
We are not persuaded the district court abused its discretion in denying ABGI’s objections to the magistrate judge’s order. ABGI has never explained, either in the district court or on appeal, why it should be allowed to conduct a physical inspection of MG’s computer hard drive(s). Although ABGI was apparently skeptical that MG produced copies of all relevant and nonprivileged documents from the hard drive(s), that reason alone is not sufficient to warrant such a drastic discovery measure. Further, ABGI has not explained why inspection of the zip drive and/or inspection of the hard drive by Tri Logic would not have been sufficient to satisfy its concerns.
No. 00-6332
ABGI challenges the district court’s post-trial award of attorney fees to MG. We generally review an award of attorney fees for abuse of discretion. Chesapeake Operating, Inc. v. Valence Operating Co., 193 F.3d 1153, 1157 (10th Cir. 1999). In doing so, we review de novo any statutory interpretation or other legal analysis underlying the district court’s decision concerning attorney fees. Id.
The district court awarded fees to MG pursuant to Okla.Stat.tit. 12, § 936, which provides:
[832] In any civil action to recover on an open account, a statement of account, account stated, note, bill, negotiable instrument, or contract relating to the purchase or sale of goods, wares, or merchandise, or for labor or services, unless otherwise provided by law or the contract which is the subject to the action, the prevailing party shall be allowed a reasonable attorney fee to be set by the court, to be taxed and collected as costs.
ABGI’s primary contention on appeal is that MG’s action (in particular its breach of contract claim) was not for “labor or services” as contemplated by § 936. In support of its contention, ABGI cites Russell v. Flanagan, 544 P.2d 510 (OMa.1975). In Russell, the plaintiff hired the defendant to service his sewer line for a fee of $24.50. Less than thirty days after the service, plaintiff experienced sewer line problems and requested that defendant return and perform additional work without charge, but defendant refused. Plaintiff filed a small claims action against defendant for “breach of warranty on labor contract.” Id. The case proceeded to trial and a jury found in favor of defendant. Defendant subsequently moved for an award of attorney fees pursuant to § 936, but the request was denied. The Oklahoma Supreme Court agreed that fees were not available to the defendant under § 936. In doing so, the court interpreted § 936 narrowly, finding that the phrase “labor or services” fell “within the initial category of ‘a civil action’ ” but not “the antecedent classification of a ‘contract relating to.’ ” Id. at 512. According to the Oklahoma Supreme Court, “the addition of the phrase ‘or for labor or services’ by amendment to the statute in 1970 was intended by the legislature to be limited to those situations where suit is brought for labor and services rendered,” and “an improper and unintended meaning would result if ... th[e] clause were construed to allow attorney fees in the all encompassing field of ‘contracts related to ..., labor or services.’ ” Id.
Although Russell would appear at first glance to support ABGI’s argument, the Oklahoma Supreme Court has since clarified its holding in Russell. In Burrows Construction Company v. Independent School District, 704 P.2d 1136 (Okla.1985), the court explained what was intended by the holding in Russell:
It is the underlying nature of the suit itself which determines the applicability of the labor and services provisions of section 936. If the action is brought for labor and services rendered, the provisions of section 936 apply. If the nature of the suit is for damages arising from the breach of an agreement relating to labor and services the provisions of this section do not necessarily apply. The question is whether the damages arose directly from the rendition of labor or services, such as a failure to pay for those services, or from an aspect collaterally relating to labor and services, such as loss of profits on a contract involving the rendition of labor and services.
Id. at 1138 (emphasis added and footnotes omitted). In accordance with this clarification, the Oklahoma Supreme Court has since held, for example, that attorney fees are recoverable under § 936 in a suit to recover the unpaid balance on a yellow pages advertising contract (the court having held that advertising is a “service”). Southwestern Bell Tel. Co. v. Parker Pest Control, Inc., 737 P.2d 1186, 1187-88 (Okla.1987). Likewise, in Strickland Tower Maintenance, Inc. v. AT & T Communications, Inc., 128 F.3d 1422, 1429 (10th Cir.1997), this court concluded attorney fees are recoverable under § 936 in a breach of contract action alleging that defendant failed to properly calculate the [833] amount of compensation owed to plaintiff for services it performed under the parties’ written agreement.
Based upon these authorities, it is clear that § 936 allowed for recovery of attorney fees in this action. The essence of MG’s suit (including both its breach of contract and quantum meruit claims) was that it performed services for ABGI (i.e., marketing and business consulting services), but that ABGI faked to pay for those services. In other words, the damages akeged by MG arose directly from its rendition of services to ABGI, and not “from an aspect cokateraky relating to labor and services.” Burrows, 704 P.2d at 1138.
ABGI attempts to nitpick MG’s breach of contract claim by arguing that the various components of damages recovered thereunder by ABGI were not for labor or services rendered. For example, ABGI attacks the components of the damage award which effectively constituted reimbursement for commissions due under the agreement and the retainer for overhead expenses due under the agreement. As the district court aptly noted, however, both of these items “were to be paid in exchange for acts collectively described in the contract as ‘consulting and marketing services.’ ” ApltApp. at 243. Thus, contrary to ABGI’s assertions, these two items were integral components of the overall compensation package that MG was to be paid in return for services rendered to ABGI.
ABGI asserts several other arguments, none of which have merit. ABGI contends that MG “took the position that it was entitled to payment by ABGI for overhead fees, director’s fees, travel expenses and commissions during the term of the alleged agreement, regardless of whether any services were rendered to ABGI and regardless of whether contracts were obtained through [MG’s] efforts.” Aplt.Br. at 14. This contention is apparently based upon the fact that MG’s complaint requested damages for the four-month period following the date the lawsuit was filed, even though MG performed no services for MG during at least three of those months. The contention is ultimately meritless, however, because, under the district court’s instructions, MG was only akowed to recover damages for the time period that it actuaky performed services for ABGI. ABGI also complains that MG’s complaint did not include a claim for quantum meruit, and that this claim was only added near the end of the litigation, based upon the district court’s ruling that it would kmit contractual damages to the 120-day period fokowing ABGI’s breach of the agreement. Regardless of when the claim was first raised, however, it is clear that the district court akowed it to go forward and the jury found in favor of MG on that claim. Thus, it can clearly be considered as one of the bases for an award of fees under § 936. ABGI contends that the damages awarded on the quantum meruit claim were not for labor or services rendered. This contention is patently incorrect. A review of the avakable portions of the trial transcript indicates that MG continued to perform marketing and consulting services for ABGI through the summer of 1997, and the jury obviously based its quantum meruit damage award on what it determined to be the reasonable value of those services.
The judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
