Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Nonny should seek specific performance, which is a legal remedy to compel Piper to fulfill her contractual obligations and deliver the unique collection of Olympics memorabilia. Since the memorabilia are unique, there is no adequate substitute available in the market, and monetary damages won't suffice. Nonny has already paid a down payment, indicating her willingness to perform her part of the contract, and therefore, she is entitled to seek a court order for specific performance.
