Contract law

makes a great legal argument in favor of not breaking the contract. Again I will take a utilitarian stance on this issue where the company needs to act in ways to produce the most happiness for the most people (Shaw and Barry, 59 – 62.) Breaking a union contract will hurt more people than it helps because a union contract typically protects the workers from the abuses of management. Not only does the union contract deal with pay but union contracts deal with a whole host of other workplace…

understood Tabitha’s control over him, but he never expected her to come right out and say it. “I won’t hold on for much longer,” Mary said through sniffles. “I know,” William whispered in her ear. “I know. Sign the contract.” “Really,” Mary said, looking up at him. “Sign the contract, Mary.” “You know what comes with this commitment.” “I do,” William said. They kissed. In the past, William and Mary’s kisses were always Puritan and awkward - like pimply-faced middle school students petrified…

to assign the distribution right. At a later date Sonterra Energy Corp. bought the distribution system and was assigned the distribution right.

I am volunteering with No Mas Muertes in the Sonoran Desert on the Tohono O’Odham reservation, leaving water and medicine for migrants making their way through US-Mexican border territory: it is territory which is inhospitable, if less heavily securitized. Characterized by rattlesnakes, extreme temperatures, and a complete lack of drinkable water, it is a geography described by former Commissioner of Immigration and Naturalization Service Doris Meissner as a “natural ally” to US Border Patrol,…

gets an electronic deposit of $2,000 every month. However, this is for 25 mows as stipulated by the contract. The lawn contract has always stipulated a maximum level of mowing. We did not bid it to be a fix contract like we currently have with the snow. We had talked about doing this in the future; however, to do that would require a re-bidding of the contract as it would require a new contract. Is this something the board want to do? I am also concerned about the week to week supervising…

of when acceptance occurs in forming contracts by electronic communication. This affects eTrade for the reason that when acceptance has occurred the business is liable to perform the contract. Analysing the current law, there is a lack of certainty in regards to time of receipt and risk is heavily weighted on the one party. eTrade should therefore recommend an amendment adopting UNCITRAL convention of the time of receipt, additionally included that the contract is not binding until a receipt…

this business venture was that I would stock his shelves with Muscadine grapes and he would pay for those grapes. He knew there would be a growth in the popularity of the grapes and instead of allowing both of us to gain in the popularity, he made a contract to keep my business from profiting. Orit Gan evaluates the elements needed to employ the doctrine of promissory estoppel. “There has to be a clear, definite, and unambiguous promise… the promisor must have had reason to expect reliance on…

Under U.C.C. Article 2-102, the sale of the car for $10,000 falls under the scope of the U.C.C. because it involved a contract for the sale of goods, defined as “tangible…[and] moveable from place to place” (Law and Commerce 232). Thus, the articles within the U.C.C. are to be applied to this case. When A sold the car to B, the car’s title moved from A to B. According to the U.C.C., “title passes to the buyer at the time and place at which the seller completed his performance” (Article 2-401).…
