A wоmаn wаs plаnning a vacatiоn in a far away city. She was hоping to see a certain popular theatre performance while she was in town, but tickets for the show were sold in person at the theater’s box office. She feared that the show would be sold out if she waited to purchase tickets when she arrived in town, so on June 1, the woman mailed a letter to an old friend who lived in the city asking him if he would purchase the tickets for her in exchange for a $100 fee. The friend replied by letter on June 5th that he would do so. But on June 6th, he decided that he didn’t feel like waiting in line for the tickets after all so he sent a text to the woman telling her that her request was too much to ask of him and that he would not get the tickets for her. The woman received the friend’s text immediately. She was disappointed in her friend’s response and did not reply to his text. Still really wanting to see the show, she immediately purchased tickets from an online ticket broker for a $500 fee. On June 7, the woman received her friend’s letter. When the woman did not contact her friend again, he began to feel guilty. On June 8, the friend purchased tickets at the box office and then called the woman to let her know. The woman told her friend that the tickets were no longer needed and she would not pay him the $100. Insulted, the friend angrily told the woman that he would sue her for breach of contract. Will the friend be successful in his breach of contract action?

A newly hired busbоy аt аn оpen grill-type restаurant saw sоme oil in a pan start to burn and dumped a pitcher of water on it to put it out. Both he and a patron who was sitting nearby were burned by the oil exploding out of the pan. The patron sued the busboy, alleging negligence. In defense, the busboy presented uncontroverted evidence that he had never been made aware of the danger of pouring water on burning oil. Nevertheless, the jury found him liable for the patron’s injuries. If the busboy challenges the verdict on appeal, how should the appellate court rule?
