Question:
Ben, an accountant in Los Angeles, interviewed with Matt, a CPA in San Francisco. At the end of his interview, Matt, the personnel manager, told Ben: "I look forward to working with you.
Please let me know if I can help you prepare for your move to San Francisco." Ben returned to Los Angeles, quit his job, gave a 30-day notice to his landlord, rented an apartment in San Francisco, and moved to San Francisco. Ben then called Matt to ask if he could start his job the following week. Matt replied that Ben had no job with him. Ben wants to recover the cost of moving expenses from Matt.
Under what legal theory may he proceed?
Discuss the arguments that Ben and Matt will each make if the claim is brought. Provide full analysis. Mere conclusions without full analysis will receive little credit. Assume Ben will sue for breach of an express contract (that there was an offer and acceptance) and for promissory estoppel.
