Assistance/Financial compensation based on contract
Basing on the facts provided, it is of utmost importance that I provide the necessary
compensation for the minor breach of contract. This lies on the fact that the contract was fulfilled
despite the arise of some few discrepancies regarding the size of the tables. Financial
compensation on the losses that were as a resultant of the breach would go a long way in helping
James business for the most part that his business was functional. A money reward is to be
handed to James as a compensation for financial losses by the breach of contract. Considering
James was injured by the breach, he is entitled to benefit of contract entered, or the net gain that
has accrued for the breach. It is also advisable that I settle the cost of repairs of the tables. Since
the contract attributed to an arrangement that would allow for an increased number of customers,
it is prudent that an arrangement is made to take care of the possible substitution of the already
bought tables with the ones stated earlier in the in the contract. Since the estimated profit is far
off from the one that was initially intended, the agreed upon amount in the contract can be used
to cater for the business loss for the duration that the changes will be done and the time that the
business was running to avoid a case against architecture company. In relation to the case law of
Norfolk Southern v James N it is evident a non-breaching party may sue for a minor breach,
which a court can dictate for the breaching party to complete its obligated performance or to pay
damage fee. In order to maintain a good image to the public the company can avoid a lawsuit by
2meeting James agreements. Ensuring that the above are sorted out will guarantee fulfilment of c
contract responsibility on my side.
Negligent Misrepresentation
The only contractual remedy for misrepresentation is recession and sometimes damages
depending on the case and type of misrepresentation. This implies that one did not directly lie,
but a representation about something was made while having no reasonable reasons for believing
it to be true. In order to avoid recession due to negligence I need to ensure that I replace the
tables as per James requirement, or I can consider taking back the tables and returning the money
to James. On the issue of the tables outside the footpath that according to the inspector from the
local council were prohibited, I would suggest an immediate removal of the tables in order to
comply with the legislation of street-side dining and avoid a lawsuit on the restaurant and my
business alike. Removal of the outside tables would mean that James is to be compensated on
