Common Law Contract
Jack prepared a valid written contract and the contract was signed by Johnny and Jack, and Johnny took the red sports car. The valid contract indicated that there was a down payment for $1,000 with ten monthly installments beginning in August of the summer Johnny was working and ending in May of the following year. In January, Johnny began to have trouble in school and with the law. He began to lead a reckless life. He wrecked the red sports car, resulting in some minor damages, but made his car payment to Jack in January. Johnny decided that he would not have the red sports car fixed and decided to let it sit in his parents’ driveway. Johnny decided in February not to make the payments on the red sports car because he did not like Jack anyway because he felt Jack had underpaid him and charged him too much for the red sports car. Johnny did not make the February, March, April, and May payments.
