PA Kettle vs. Brigitte Godot: Case Summary and Analysis

Mr. Slim Jim verbally submitted an offer to Mr. Potbelly who proceeded to accept Mr. Slim Jims’ offer unequivocally (pg. 122). The “Basic Requirements of a Contract” (pg. 107) were completed. In this bilateral contract (pg. 107), “Communication of Acceptance” (pg. 123) was evident as Mr. Potbelly responded “Sure I’ll take it” when Mr. Slim Jim submitted an offer for the pottery and enthusiastically replied “I’ll take it!” when Mr. Slim Jim gave him an offer of cash for his home. As a result of this, Mr. Slim Jim is suing for the “right to obtain specific performance” asking that the agreement be upheld. Also, according to “admissions” (one of the “exceptions to the statutes of frauds” (pg. 175) Mr. Potbelly’s agreement should be upheld.

CASE 1: John purchased a computer from Gateway, Inc. He noted upon starting it up that he had to agree to a number of provisions in the contract of purchase in order to continue his initial installation. The program indicated that if he did not wish to agree to the terms, he could return the computer to Gateway at Gateway's expense. One of the provisions requires that any disputes arising under the contract agreement be submitted to binding arbitration for a resolution.

However, Candace was very skilled and duplicitous during the negotiation. While at no point did Candace lie to me. She did make the full entirety of Absentia’s plans for the property. It was later revealed to me, after the formal negotiation, that Absentia planned to develop a high-rise hotel directly behind the Bullard House. This is completely unacceptable to my constituents, however, the deal was already agreed upon by the time I was informed. Candace used the questionable negotiation strategy of deception to ensure she received a favorable deal. She knowingly withheld information that would have impact the terms of our deal. For her, the deal was a success. However, I am left feeling mislead. When I would question her about the types of commercial development that her constitutes sought to pursue, she would make vague references to tasteful additions within the property. The lack of effective question is a failure of mine. I should have begun to ask probing questions, as Lewicki suggests, when I realized that she was not fully disclosing information. Instead I allowed the ambiguous answers to be the basis of my decision

In 1637, there was a religious dissenter who had led the way for religious independence in Puritan New England named Anne Hutchinson. Anne, was the fluent, strong-willed, quick-witted of a prominent merchant who had thirteen children, served as a healer, and midwife. On the other hand, Anne was deported from Boston in 1637 for her religious and women’s rights and escaped to Rhode Island. She had meetings at home about the sermons and the meetings turned into a famously forums for Hutchinson’s own narration on the religious matters. She also said to have some kind of experience with Holy Spirit that stated that Puritan ministers like two or three had preached the right “covenant of grace”. Not to mention she did disobey many laws and tried to be a leader but was going the wrong way of disobeying

In our recent negotiation, my partner Dave and I assumed the roles of Alan Hacker, a computer software developer, and Alan Hacker’s lawyer. Being the lawyer in the negotiation my objective was to avoid litigation with my client’s partner Stanley Star and to aid in the continuation of my client’s co-owned company HackerStar. In addition, I would assist Hacker in coming to an agreement that would be satisfying for him both personally and financially. I felt that Dave and I presented a reasonable argument on Hacker’s behalf and, since I was able to apply some of our class readings during the process, I was overall pleased with the outcome.

A bargain that is in good faith should be directed towards entering into an agreement. Any party that introduces unrealistic conditions is said not to be in good faith. The negotiations between the company and the union did not result in an agreement, even after eighteen meetings were held in a time frame of eleven months. The company is to blame for the failure to enter into an agreement due to the introduction of conditions that were unfavorable to the union. An agreement can only occur when the parties involved are ready to compromise. The company was not ready to compromise, thus making it right to conclude that it was not in good faith.

Countess Elizabeth Bathory is one of the most infamous women of all time and made waves that have traveled from her time to ours. Bathory was born in Hungary during the 16th century, and remained in the area throughout the course of her life.(1) When Elizabeth was only fifteen she married Ferenc Nadasdy and moved to Cesije Castle, where she would later die; and more importantly where she murdered and tortured approximately 650 young girls.(1) The details of Elizabeth’s various murderous activities were never concrete, this was mainly because of the time period. However, this did not stop speculation or interest in her life and what she did.

b) Historical Context: Does the context of the negotiations clarify the intentions and expectations of the parties?

Within human society, a certain symbiotic relationship exists between the ideas of law and justice. These two concepts often correlate with one another. However, Susan Glaspell’s play, “Trifles”, exemplified a specific instance where justice was achieved for Minnie Foster with very little regard to the law. At the same time, an paradoxical dynamic occurs for John Wright where it doesn’t seem that he will obtain justice even with the assistance of the legal system. Colloquial English speakers often use the terms ‘law’ and ‘justice’ interchangeably, and many people associate the existence of one with the other.

The fourth deal is an offer from Guinness. The details include a three-year contract in Europe for a total of €1 million or $1,654,380. If Ricardo chooses to renew, she will have 60 days before the end of the contract to negotiate. Because of drinking laws, the advertisement will run in other countries in EU. This deal is great because of the international exposure that the tennis star could receive. The only issue with this deal is that with all the other deals, if she accepted this one, would should be in breach of contract? Does she have to try Guiness and have promotions where she is drinking it? Also, is travel included in this deal. The client should not need to pay because she is representing their product.

In the Lady’s debate with the enchanter the theoretical exposition of the elder brother is translated into action. The debate, reminiscent of Milton’s prolusions at Cambridge, pits the sophistry of Comus against the Lady’s enlightened reasoning, which is informed by her commitment to virtue, specifically temperance and chastity. Comus’s palace, with “all manner of deliciousness” and “Tables spread with all dainties,” is intended to arouse the Lady’s appetites. The intricacies of the debate are manifold, but the essence of Comus’s argument is simply stated: that appetites are naturally licit and innocent when gratified. Having exhibited “all the pleasures” in his palace, Comus alleges that such plenitude or bounty was provided by Nature for

1) The court looked at if a reasonable individual would consider the offer as valid. Zehmer’s outward expressions and words constituted a genuine offer to sell. The outward demonstrated intent is all the court looks at, not the secret and inward thought of the defendant. The contract cannot be done in passing or absent-mindedly. Both parts have to come to mutual understanding and agreement (Melvin, 2011). Lucy demonstrated her intent by ensuring that details were in the contract (illustrated by several drafts that were written), and by ensuring both husband and wife signed the contract (Lucy v. Zehmer-Case Brief Summary, 2015).
