A cоurt is trying tо decide whether а refrigerаtоr is а fixture. The court reviews several facts about this refrigerator in deciding how to classify for it. For example, (a) the court acknowledges that a refrigerator can be unplugged and rolled away easily, so it would not damage the home by removing it, (b) but also that a home cannot function well without a refrigerator, so maybe it should be considered a fixture. After thinking about these facts, the court realizes that the buyer and seller agreed in a contract that the refrigerator would be considered a fixture and remain with the property when the home was sold. Based on that contract, then, the court decides the refrigerator is a fixture. Which test did the court use? (Chapter 5)
