Maryland Arms Limited Contract Case Study

In this paper I will discuss the various aspects of a Federal Contract Specialist position and what makes it different from many other government jobs. Some people think contracting is just shopping for a living, however, it requires great skill and attention to detail. Contract Specialists must be able to communicate effectively with their customers, vendors and other contracting personnel and they must be able to accurately interpret regulations and apply them appropriately. This position is a little bit customer service representative, a little bit personal shopper and a whole lot of legal assistant.

Most time, acceptance would be made in clear and loud matters, such as saying “Yes, I accept.” But silence would constitute acceptance of an offer where the common-law and statutory law allows. Supreme Court of Nebraska has confirmed in Joseph Heiting and Sons v. Jacks Bean Co that acceptance may be established by silence or inaction of an offeree and acceptance occurs when the buyer/offeree “does any act inconsistent with the seller/offeror’s ownership...” Neb. U.C.C. section 2-606(1)(c). In Joseph Heiting and Sons v. Jacks Bean Co, 463 N.W.2d 817, 236 Neb. 765 (Neb.,1990), Heiting (Plaintiff) offered to sell its beans at the posted price on September 30, 1987, but was never informed of acceptance or rejection of the offer. Heiting and Jacks

Our client, Sage Rent-A-Car Incorporation, leased a vehicle to Jeffery Calkin.

This claim arises out of a lawsuit filed by Plaintiff, Debra Nathan-Nenn, on her own behalf, and on behalf of her minor son, Grey Hoffman. The Amended Complaint alleges in general that Ms. Nathan-Nenn executed a written lease to rent a house from the insureds starting on June 1, 2013. The plaintiffs further allege that starting on the day the plaintiffs took possession of the house, the drain in the kitchen sink was not working and the insureds failed to correct this condition. The complaint continues to allege additional deficiencies in the rental property such as mold growth in one of the bedrooms and in various locations of the house due to excess moisture and failure to patch exterior openings, insufficient heating, holes in the exterior walls, an unfinished deck, insufficient weather sealants, vermin in the crawlspace, frozen pipes and lack of running water. The plaintiffs further allege that the insureds have failed to address and resolve the above issues. The most serious claim is that the mold present throughout the house caused the plaintiff and her minor son to become ill.

To begin with, Sarah Leah was offered a new job with a magazine company in Ottawa and had to start the next weekend. She packed up all her belongings and headed to Ottawa where she entered into an oral contract with the Holiday Inn Suites Hotel. Under this contract, the plaintiff would receive accommodation from the hotel and in return, she would pay for the accommodation. The hotel breached their contract when there was a fire in the hotel that resulted in Sarah’s property being destroyed as well as, the room which she entered into a contract under. To remedy the situation, Sarah could sue for punitive damages, actual damages and general damages. Under punitive damages, Sarah could sue for the hotels reckless actions/conduct. The hotel could have easily avoided this fire had they taken the necessary steps to prevent it such as; having signs that said “smoking is prohibited in the hotel lobby” or even telling people that enter the hotel that there are designated smoking areas around the hotel premise if they wish to smoke. Sarah could also sue for actual damages, such as, possible lost income from work (while she finds another place to live) and her property that was destroyed in the fire. Finally, she could also sue for general damages,

A contract is an agreement that is voluntarily entered into by two or more parties that specifically causes a legal obligation. Within the original contact there is, then, the expectation that all parties would perform as agreed unless the parties agree together to change the terms of the contract, or the actions of the party that deviates from the terms of the contract are ratified (implicitly accepted) by the other party. Product liability is an area of law in which any organization that either makes products (manufacturers) or distributes to the public (makes available) may be held responsible for potential injuries that may be caused by those products. In the United States, claims for product liability are usually associated with some type of negligence, breach of warranty, or other consumer protection issues. However, the large majority of product liability laws vary considerably because they are determined from state to state. This, of course, makes it problematical to litigate across state boundaries, as well as ensure that manufacturing requirements are met more universally (Golden, 2000).
