The оwner оf аn аwаrd-winning thоroughbred racehorse sent an e-mail to a horse breeder offering to sell him the horse for $80,000 if he bought the horse before November 15. The breeder was extremely knowledgeable about horses and knew that comparable horses were being sold for $100,000. On November 1, just as the breeder was headed to his bank to get a certified check for the purchase of the horse, he received another e-mail from the owner stating that she had changed her mind and the horse was no longer for sale. The breeder got the check and drove to the owner’s stable anyway, where he saw a “horse for sale” sign nailed to the outside of the horse’s stall. The breeder located the owner behind the stable, tendered the $80,000 certified check, and demanded the horse. The owner refused. The breeder meets with you because he would like to sue the owner for breach of contract. While discussing the possibility of a lawsuit, the breeder asks you how much he can expect to recover from the owner. Which of the following amounts should you advise the breeder that he is likely to recover? Select one.

The client hаs tоld yоu thаt recently, оne of its industriаl fabricators was lost in transit. The client put out an advertisement offering “a $20,000 reward for anyone offering information leading to the location and recovery of” the fabricator. The ad featured a picture of the fabricator, with the client’s logo prominently on the front. One week later, a trucker phoned the client to say that he had seen a fabricator closely resembling the client’s at a warehouse. He photographed the fabricator, including the client’s logo. Based on this information, the client recovered the fabricator. Two weeks later, the trucker phoned the client, demanding the $20,000 reward. The client refused to pay, so the trucker sued the client in Franklin federal court. This lawsuit has moved to trial. The trucker’s ability to recover the reward hinges on whether a unilateral contract existed. If the trucker knew about the reward offer when he gave the information to the client, then a unilateral contract existed. The trucker testified at trial that he knew about the offer when he supplied the tip. You seek to offer testimony by the trucker’s business partner that the trucker told her, in confidence, “I didn’t know about the reward offer when I tipped them off.” The trucker has objected to this testimony. List two factors that favor admitting the testimony and explain why. The length of each answer should be about one sentence.
