Question 49

1.  Which of the following statements is true?
2. a.Sharon bought a television at a bargain price from her local appliance store. A few days later, however, a police officer came to her door, told her that the television was stolen property, and confiscated it. Sharon did not know the television was stolen and thus, can get her money back from the appliance store.
3. b.Fran, a farmer, made an oral agreement to sell Bob her entire soybean crop for $350. Later, she received an offer of $600 for the crop from Sal. Reasoning that her oral agreement with Bob was unenforceable, she sold all her soybeans to Sal at the higher price. Bob hen sued Fran for breach of contract and won.
4. c.Don, a minor, wanted to buy a car from Happy Harry, a used-car dealer. Harry, who had contracts voided by minors in the past, exercised extreme caution in his dealings with anyone who looked young. He asked for identification, and Don produced a driver's licence that belonged to his older brother. This fooled Harry, who then sold the car to Don. Later, Don had trouble with the car and invoking a minor's right to disaffirm a contract, tried to return it to Harry for a full refund. Harry will have to accept the car and refund Don's money.
5. d.Charles, age 17, took a six-week job in a lumber camp. At the start of that period, he entered into a contract with Sally, the operator of a boarding house, for six weeks of room and board for $480, payable at the end of the six weeks. When the six weeks were up, however, Charles refused to pay, stating that he was disaffirming the contract under his rights as a minor. Sally sued Charles for the $480 and won because $480 was the reasonable value of room and board.
6. e.All of the above statements are true.
