Quizplus · Accepted Answer

DC) Lydia cannot sue Karen for warranting that the stair stepper is reasonably fit for its ordinary purpose because Karen is not a merchant. The warranty of merchantability typically applies to sellers who are merchants of the goods sold. Since Karen is a private individual and not a merchant, this warranty does not apply.D) The concept of privity of contract does not prevent Lydia from suing Karen because privity of contract refers to the relationship between parties in a contract, and Lydia and Karen do have a contract between them (the sale of the stair stepper). However, Lydia cannot sue Karen based on the warranty of merchantability for the reason mentioned in C.
