With Sam and Dr. Peters, it was an incident that could have been avoided altogether if the two men communicated better and cleared up information when they bumped into each for that brief moment in the market. As Sam came to seek an analysis on the recent business transaction it is best to look at all events that had partaken and move in from there. When it comes to Sam and Dr. Peters they both, in terms, can deal with civil or criminal capacity. For Sam, he can be liable in both civil and criminal. For civil it is due to the Libel, “the spreading of damaging statements in written form, including pictures, cartoons, and effigies” (Liuzzo, 2016, p. 52).…

This essay seeks to discuss the Doctrine of Promissory Estoppel and the Doctrine of Consideration, as well as a clear analysis, with the use of case law, how Promissory Estoppel has become an exception to the general principle that a promise may only be enforced if it is supported by good consideration; it will ultimately conclude whether or not a promise to accept a smaller sum in discharge of a larger sum, if acted upon, is binding notwithstanding the absence of consideration. A contract is a legally binding agreement in law between two or more parties, which is enforced by law or by binding arbitration if it covers the elements of a valid legal agreement. For there to be a valid contract, three elements must be present, offer, acceptance, and consideration. If there is no consideration, there is no contract; however, with promissory estoppel instead of consideration, if there is a promise which induces reliance, the court would find some sort of liability for the promise.…

The defendant original wanted to sell a farm for £1000; however the claimant made a counter offer of £950. The Counter offer was not accepted so the claimant subsequently tried to accept the original offer. The defendant then refused to honour the original offer. The claimant bought an action of specific performance against the defendant, but was unsuccessful because as soon as a counter offer is made this immediately voids the original offer in its entirety (Duxbury 2011) and the offerer is not bound by the original offer. Nevertheless due to differentiation of interpretation of language and conduct, both potential outcomes must be analysed and then assessed which course of action would be most…
