1. Elmer Fudd was involved in various businesses in which he worked with the movie industry locating filming locations, props etc. He decided to open an office in White Plains, NY and contacted First Fifth Bank for financing for the building, furniture, etc. He was referred to Wile E. Coyote, a vice president of the bank who orally agreed the bank would provide financing. Alas, Wile failed to mention that he only had express authority to approve loans up to $10,000 and Elmer was requesting $200,000. After providing Elmer with $185,000 of financing, the bank refused to provide additional funding. Elmer subsequently defaulted on the loans and the bank sued him for full repayment. Elmer countersued the bank for breach of contract. Who wins this kerfluffle and why?
