Issue 1
Can Ben bring a claim against Sandy for breach of contract? Has Sandy violated the agreement he had with Ben?
Rule 1
Contract violations may occur voluntarily or inadvertently. One way to violate the contract is to fail to complete the task you have already agreed to execute. When one party breaks a contract, the other can go to court, follow the proper steps to get his money back and end the agreement. To proceed with a lawsuit, the plaintiff must first demonstrate two things:
The other person did this without a legitimate reason.
Losses will result from the contract’s violation, necessitating reimbursement.
Implementation 1
Sandy can still purchase more tractors and give Ben as agreed, so he may be held accountable for contract violations. But, Sandy can argue that he suffered losses due to the fire catastrophe and that he is not able to build another warehouse in time, which is logical in this instance. Sandy will be forced to pay Ben back in court despite his losses.
1st Conclusion
Ben will demonstrate that he suffered losses due to the contract’s breach, in which case Ben would be entitled to compensation. On the other side, Ben will outline what transpired and his justifications for canceling the agreement for the court. Sandy’s breach of the agreement will be excused by the court, giving him time to make amends to Ben.
Issue 2
Is Sandy and Carol’s agreement enforceable and valid?
Rule 2
If an agreement is legitimate and enforceable, it is legitimate. All components necessary for a deal to be enforceable should be in a valid contract. A contract’s features are as follows:
Providing and receiving
Consideration
written communication
Cooperation and expertise
Obligation
- Application
Due to the oral nature of their pact, Sandy and Carol cannot enforce it. There is no proof of a written agreement, although they had an understanding that Carol would sell the seeder to Sandy after three months. Sandy may opt to court, but the judge will declare the contract void and unenforceable.
