• “[i]t is not as easy as it should be to identify what does – or does not – constitute a cause of action for ‘open account’ ”
• “In commercial transactions, an ‘open account’ should refer to an unsettled debt, arising from items of work or labor, goods sold and other open transactions not reduced to writing, the sole record of which is usually the account books of the owner of the demand.”
