Amira sells auto parts from her home. She usually sells theparts to her neighbors and friends. She has been doing this for along time. Emma owns a factory that makes auto parts. Emma has soldauto parts to Amira each year for the past ten years. Both Emma andAmira try to do what everyone else in the auto parts business does,which is selling the parts and then installing them. One day, Amiradecides that she wants more money. Amira still plans on doingbusiness from her home. Amira asks Emma, “I will pay you what Ialways have paid you for your nicest auto parts. Just let me know”Emma doesn’t answer but, a week later, Emma delivers, at Amira’smother’s house, half the number of fuel filters that she usuallyhas delivered to Amira. Three weeks later, Emma delivers the otherhalf of the fuel filters to Amira’s mother’s house. Emma then goeson the first vacation that she has ever taken in her whole life,leaving the country for twenty years. After both deliveries of theparts, Amira had found the parts at her mother’s house by accident.Amira does not even look at the filters until two months after Emmahas already left for vacation and then finds that a third of themdon’t work. By then, Amira has no way to contact Emma.Unfortunately, mechanic Melinda, whom Amira has hired sometime toinstall auto parts because Melinda always gives Amira a 50%discount in installation cost, also left the country justyesterday. Now, it is too late for Amira to ask Melinda to installthe parts that do work properly. Amira tells Jordyn, anothermechanic, about all the trouble Amira is having. Jordyn, withoutfirst telling Amira, goes ahead and installs the parts and sendsAmira a bill for three times the usual installation fee. This isjust the way that Jordyn does business. Jordyn knows that Amira hasnever paid anyone more than the usual installation fee, but Jordyndoes the installation anyway because Jordyn was feeling lucky.Identify all pertinent legal issues, making sure to give the namesof specific legal concepts and applying the facts to the issues.Also, what are both duties and rights that all the parties have?Make sure that you identify and explain all possibilities.
