Diana, a high school sophomore, contracted to buy 200 ribbons from Ribbons-R-Us to be delivered before Spring Break to make hair ribbons to sell to her classmates. Diana had planned on making the hair ribbons during the break. After the ribbons were timely delivered, Diana decided she’d rather spend her Spring Break traveling instead, and refused to pay Ribbons-R-Us. Diana’s parents found out, felt terrible for the actions of their daughter, and wrote a letter of apology to Ribbons-R-Us, promising to pay the company for what Diana owed. When Diana’s parents, too, reneged on their promise, Ribbons-R-Us sued the parents. The most likely outcome is

Tennis Emporium, whose headquarters were located in Woodward, contracted to buy 1,000 tennis balls from Tennis Balls, Co., which sold the balls from Springfield. The written contract called for the tennis balls to be delivered in Greenville a month after the contract was executed, payment due at delivery. Tennis Balls, Co. shipped the balls timely from Springfield using Rely-in-Us Carrier, a third-party carrier. During shipment, however, the tennis balls became damp and damaged when cans of tomato soup in the same shipment fell and soup spilled all over the balls. The contract was silent as to which party would bear the loss should the goods become damaged or destroyed during shipment. Neither Tennis Emporium nor Tennis Balls, Co. was at fault, and the loss of the balls was not insured. Which party should bear the loss?

Steve was renting a room above an antique store. The owner of the store kept some of his inventory in the backyard of the store which was a fenced- in area with a gate. The owner asked Able to keep an eye on the backyard in order to protect the items he stored there. One night a neighbor was having a party down the alley from the yard. Dan and Tom who were guests at the party, entered through the gate of the store owner’s backyard and picked up some chairs for the party going on at the neighbor’s house. Steve observed what was happening and yelled at Dan and Tom to get out and to leave the premises. They continued to walk away with the chairs and Steve fired two shots from his handgun which struck both Dan and Tom. The burglary statute in this jurisdiction includes “A person entering a fenced or otherwise enclosed commercial yard used for storing equipment or supplies with intent to commit grand or petty theft, or any felony.” Assume that this jurisdiction follows modern statutory law with standards similar to those adopted by the California Supreme Court. Steve is charged with aggravated assault. Does he have a valid defense?

Bell, a computer company, sold computers and tablets on its website. Guy bought a tablet from Bell online. The tablet was seasonably delivered to Guy’s apartment a week after the purchase, which was true to the shipping option that Guy chose and for which he paid. Guy took the tablet out of the packaging, inspected it, and upon finding no defect, started using it. Three months into use, the tablet started to overheat routinely through no fault of Guy’s. A week after that, the tablet became so overheated when used that it was no longer safe to operate it. Guy sent the tablet back to Bell and demanded a refund. Bell refused to grant Guy a refund, and Guy sued Bell. The court should rule for

A social-networking company, Connexion, was interested in acquiring a small but popular online photo-sharing service, A Pix a Day (Pix). Pix provided Connexion with a report of the state of its financial condition using generally accepted accounting principles. Connexion performed its own due diligence, examining Pix’s financial condition. Connexion’s investigation revealed that Pix’s financial condition was not as healthy as Pix represented in its report. When Connexion confronted Pix with this information, Pix insisted that its report was accurate, its financial condition was healthy, and it would remain healthy all the way to closing of the acquisition. Relying on Pix’s insistence, Connexion acquired Pix for a price appropriate to Pix’s self-reported healthy state of financial condition and profitability. After the acquisition, Connexion’s misgivings proved to be right: Pix was not worth the price for which it had been bought. Connexion sued Pix for breach of warranty. The court is likely to rule for

AutoRestorer was in the business of restoring and selling classic cars. It purchased a 1969 muscle car at an estate sale of an elderly gentleman who had enjoyed classic cars. The administrator of the estate sale informed AutoRestorer that the car would be ready for AutoRestorer to pick up at the conclusion of the estate sale at the end of business day that same day.
