I'm also good friends with Luther M. and Tim C.<br /><br />Out of boredom, I read this blog and stumbled upon your steak comment. Because I'm a law student now, I thought I might shed some light on what is a standard Contracts question.<br /><br />Your question about what is steak is answered by a first year case called "Frigaliment." Every jurisdiction, including MD, has a variant on it.<br /><br />http://law.scu.edu/FacWebPage/Neustadter/contractsebook/main/cases/FrigalimentInterp.html<br /><br />The facts were as follows: a cook bought a number chickens from a merchant. The contract was not more specific. When the chickens arrived, the cook realized that they were stewing chickens, which were unsuitable for his culinary needs. He asked the merchant to take them back, but he refused. A lawsuit followed.<br /><br />The legal issue was: did the merchant give the cook a "chicken" in accordance with the meaning of their contract?<br /><br />Long story short, in situations like yours, the court would look at custom usage (what type of steak sandwiches are there usually? what should you expect?); the price of steak (is it grossly out of proportion to what you got?); and some of the oral pre-negotiations exchanged (did you ask them about the taste of the steak? how did the menu advertise the steak?).<br /><br />All of these ideas, especially the advertisement idea, are cabined by no less interesting legal doctrines, such as puffery in offers.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8014917807329889939.post-42430200125946968492008-12-08T14:23:00.000-06:002008-12-08T14:23:00.000-06:00Ram!

First, liking lots of kinds of beer is good. Now, mutton is so totally not beef! I'm actually more than a little worried by this anecdote (as I have been ever since you first reported it to me). How can I have a dissertation advisor who doesn't know her fleshy parts???Stephanie Hershinowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09069154727431254589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8014917807329889939.post-10305952790000211082008-11-21T15:47:00.000-06:002008-11-21T15:47:00.000-06:00Baa!Baa!Sisyphushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09880634753539329199noreply@blogger.com
