تمرين 12

Anticipatory Repudiation. ABC Clothiers, Inc., has a contract with Taylor Sons, a retailer, to deliver one thousand summer suits to Taylor's place of business on or before May 1. On April 1, Taylor receives a letter from ABC informing him that ABC will not be able to make the delivery as scheduled. Taylor is very upset, as he had planned a big ad campaign.
?
(a) The first group will discuss whether Taylor can immediately sue ABC for breach of contract (on April 2).
(b) Now suppose that Taylor's son, Tom, tells his father that they cannot file a lawsuit until ABC actually fails to deliver the suits on May 1. The second group will decide who is correct, Taylor senior or Tom.
(c) Assume that Taylor Sons can either file immediately or wait until ABC fails to deliver the goods. The third group will evaluate which course of action is better, given the circumstances.
