The plaintiff bought a baseball bat from the defendant and the baseball bat turned out to be broken because, as soon as the defendant used the bat to play baseball, the bat shattered into a million pieces. Shattering into a million pieces certainly violates the implied warranty of merchantability under UCC 2-314. Industria De Calcados Martini Ltda. v. Maxwell Shoe Co., 36 Mass. App. Ct. 268 (Mass. App. Ct. 1994) Also, there’s a case that expounded upon this issue and told us that a baseball bat can’t crack when it’s used normally. Otherwise, the store has to give back the money to the plaintiff. Dudzik v. Klein's All Sports, 158 Misc. 2d 72 (N.Y. J. Ct. 1993). The information that can be clearly drawn from these cases is if someone buys a baseball bat, it must be in the condition that was represented to the heretofore named parties. At least, the bat must be in sufficient marketable condition so that the implied warranty owing from the party of the first part to the party of the second part must be sustained. Also, as if those cases weren’t enough, the UCC 2-314 demands that goods must be in good condition when they are

The main issue of this case is to determine if Tricontinental may recover from PwC for negligence. In order to show negligence there must be four requirements that the plaintiff must show. The four requirements are: the defendant owed a duty of care, defendant breached that duty, breach of duty to care caused the plaintiff’s injury, and fourth that damages resulted.

In Caparo Industries plc v Dickman7, it was determined that courts had to test the duty by “whether the damage was reasonably foreseeable, whether there was a relationship of proximity between claimant and defendant, and whether it is just and reasonable to impose a duty.”8 If so, then a duty of care could arise.

Almost all products or goods offered to patrons are safeguarded by a warranty. There are three types of warranties shown in the UCC, title warranties, express warranties, and implied warranties. Title warranties are comprised of good title, no liens, and no infringement upon the title. Title warranties stipulate that when a good or product is sold the vender has legitimate title to the said goods or products. The vendor additionally stipulates that there are no liens against the goods or products, and the goods and products have no copyright, trademark or patent infringements against them. Should any of these stipulations be violated the buyer can present suit against the vendor for breach of contract.

Am hereby addressing you regarding the inclusion of the lawsuit in the year’s financial statement of the Gadget Inc. The pending litigation can be a significant potential liability to the company. The lack of disclosure of such liabilities has cause misunderstanding between the auditors, company CEOs, and the users of the financial statements. Auditors are supposed to access the suitability of the financial statement disclosures regarding the pending litigations. However, this is one of difficult tasks as the auditor’s efforts to do so depends upon receiving the information from company’s attorneys. The auditor therefore should seek the information from the company’s attorney before disclosing pending litigation as a liability in the company’ financial statement.

The Latin principle of caveat emptor literally meaning let the buyer beware, has been followed for many years by the English courts in the context of business transactions. Pre the industrial revolution the action for breach of contractual rights needed a written warranty otherwise action could only be brought on the grounds of fraud. The reasoning for such action was based on the manner in which business was conducted, that is, namely at small fairs where buyers could inspect the goods and haggle accordingly. This is evidenced in cases such as Chandelor v Lopus in which a plaintiff brought an action against the defendant in relation to a Bezoar stone which was thought to have medicinal properties. In this instance, the majority of the

The core of a breach of warranty claim is that the manufacturers product does not perform as the manufacturer promised or is missing certain characteristics that the manufacturer promised were included. Any type of defects and the failure to warn the consumer of such defects creates a warranty claim. Just like strict liability, a breach of warranty does not rely on the fact of whether the product adheres to the manufacturer promises, rather, it is based on whether the manufacturer is liable for failing to uphold its promises. A manufacturer could however argue affirmative defenses and other defenses such as a lack of privity, or a lack of notice from the plaintiff. Regardless of the type of liability selected by legislators, they should keep in mind the design or product defect of an AV should be differentiated from the negligence of the
