Diаnа оwned twо аdjacent parcels оf commercial property, known as the Northern Parcel and the Southern Parcel, near a popular marina. The Northern Parcel had direct access to the marina's waterfront. The Southern Parcel was located between the Northern Parcel and Harbor Boulevard, the main road providing access to the area. Diana listed the Northern Parcel for sale, and Kevin expressed strong interest in purchasing it. Kevin was particularly attracted to a restored 1920s gazebo located on the Northern Parcel, as well as the property's waterfront access. On January 10, Diana and Kevin signed a written contract for the sale of the Northern Parcel for $425,000. The contract explicitly stated that the sale included "the restored gazebo structure currently located on the property." The contract also provided that Kevin would receive an easement across the Southern Parcel to access Harbor Boulevard. However, Diana and Kevin both mistakenly believed Harbor Boulevard was called Seaside Drive (the actual name of a different street in a nearby neighborhood). Consequently, the contract described the easement as providing access "across the Southern Parcel to Seaside Drive"—a description that would provide no practical benefit to Kevin. The parties agreed on a closing date of March 15. On January 15, Kevin paid Diana a $50,000 non-refundable deposit, which the contract specified would be applied toward the purchase price at closing. The contract stated that if Diana breached the agreement, Kevin would be entitled to a refund of the deposit plus interest. Diana immediately deposited the $50,000 into her business account, which already contained $30,000 from her property management business. In late January, Diana received an unsolicited offer from a developer to purchase the Northern Parcel for $550,000. Diana decided she would rather accept the developer's higher offer. When Kevin insisted that Diana honor their contract, Diana informed him that she intended to sell the property to the developer instead, with closing scheduled for late March. Diana added, "Anyway, our contract isn't enforceable because it references the wrong street name." In early February, Kevin discovered that Diana planned to tear down the gazebo in mid-February to improve the water views from the Southern Parcel, which Diana intended to keep. Kevin immediately consulted an attorney, who sent Diana a letter on February 5 demanding that she honor the contract and not demolish the gazebo. Diana did not respond to the letter. On February 18, Diana demolished the gazebo. Kevin did not take any legal action at that time because he hoped to resolve the matter through negotiation. Throughout February and early March, Kevin's attorney exchanged several emails with Diana attempting to reach a settlement, but Diana refused to budge from her position. On March 1, Diana used $75,000 from her business account (which now contained $80,000 total) to purchase a luxury boat, which she docked at the marina. On March 10, Diana withdrew an additional $25,000 and used $20,000 to make improvements to the Southern Parcel and $5,000 for personal expenses. Her business account now contains only $5,000, consisting entirely of funds from her property management business that were deposited after Kevin's deposit. On March 16, one day after the scheduled closing date had passed, Diana sold the Northern Parcel to the developer for $550,000 in cash. Diana deposited this money into her business account. Kevin is now considering filing suit against Diana. What remedies (both equitable and legal) could Kevin reasonably seek against Diana? Discuss all viable options, including: a. What remedies might have been available before the gazebo was demolished and before the sale to the developer? b. What remedies are now available after both the demolition and the sale? What are the two strongest remedial defenses that Diana could reasonably raise against Kevin's claims? Discuss each defense and evaluate Diana's likelihood of success.
