Questiоn 3 - 7 Pоints Curd Nerds Frаnchising, Inc. frаnchises fаst-casual cheese curd restaurants thrоughout the Midwest. It has sold more than 140 franchises, employs a full-time franchise sales team, and regularly negotiates and signs franchise agreements with restaurant operators. Capitol Hospitality Group, LLC is an experienced restaurant operator. It owns nine restaurants in Dane County, and it regularly buys commercial kitchen equipment, furniture, and food inventory for its locations. On March 2, Curd Nerds emailed Capitol an offer to grant it a 10-year franchise for the exclusive Middleton territory. Under the proposed agreement, Capitol would receive the right to use the Curd Nerds name, logo, and recipes, a two-week training program for its managers, and ongoing marketing and operational support. Capitol would pay a $45,000 initial franchise fee plus monthly royalties of 6% of gross sales. The initial fee included a “Grand Opening Kit” of branded menu boards, signage, and uniforms worth about $4,000. The email stated: “This is a firm offer. We will hold the Middleton territory for you and will not withdraw this offer before May 29 so you can secure your SBA loan.” The email ended with the typed signature block “— Marcus Lindqvist, Director of Franchise Development, Curd Nerds Franchising, Inc.” Capitol paid nothing to have the offer held open. On April 14, a competing operator offered Curd Nerds a higher fee for the Middleton territory. That same day, Curd Nerds emailed Capitol: “We regret that we are withdrawing our March 2 offer, effective immediately.” Capitol received the email that day. On April 17, after its SBA loan was approved, Capitol emailed Curd Nerds: “We accept your March 2 offer for the Middleton franchise.” Capitol argues that both companies are sophisticated merchants, that the March 2 email was a signed, written firm offer, and that the offer therefore could not be revoked before May 29. Curd Nerds argues that it was free to withdraw the offer at any time before Capitol accepted. REQUIRED – 7 Points: Was a contract formed? Explain your answer.
Questiоn 1 – 10 Pоints Cаpitоl Climb, LLC operаtes аn indoor rock-climbing gym in Madison, Wisconsin, and sells day passes and memberships to the public. The gym uses automatic belay devices (“auto-belays”), which catch climbers and lower them slowly to the floor if they fall or let go of the wall. The auto-belays were purchased from VertiTech, Inc. Each device is connected to VertiTech’s maintenance app. The app sends an alert to gym management when a device reports a “retraction fault,” and the manufacturer’s written instructions require that a device displaying a retraction fault be removed from service immediately and, in all events, before it is used again. On a busy Saturday during a half-price promotion, the app flagged the auto-belay on Wall 7 with a retraction fault. The manager on duty was short-staffed. She dismissed the alert on her phone and decided to “deal with it Monday,” so Wall 7 stayed open. Capitol Climb painted a marked “Waiting Zone” on the floor about six feet from the base of each wall, where customers line up for their turn to climb. That afternoon Jordan Reyes, a day-pass customer, climbed Wall 7. When Jordan let go at the top, the auto-belay failed to engage properly. Jordan dropped nearly 20 feet and landed on Priya Shah, a customer standing in the Waiting Zone. Priya suffered a fractured pelvis and a concussion. Capitol Climb argues that Priya was not even climbing, so it owed her no duty with respect to the auto-belay. REQUIRED – 10 Points: Will Priya prevail in her negligence lawsuit against Capitol Climb? In separately lettered or numbered paragraphs, discuss each element of Priya’s negligence claim. DO NOT discuss any claims against VertiTech or Jordan.
