Law, Business and Society 11th Edition by Tony McAdams

Exercise 58

Construction worker Brent Loveland showed up at the home of Oklahoma State University football coach Mike Gundy to begin work on a trim installation-wearing a University of Oklahoma Sooners baseball T-shirt. He was fired from the job that day. Loveland sued Gundy and his wife, Kristen, alleging, among other things, breach of contract. Loveland's lawsuit sought the $80,600 that he was allegedly to be paid for the 13-week job, and the potential income of over $30,000 he lost because he turned down other jobs owing to his commitment to work on the Gundy home.
