General instructions

Please answer each question as thoroughly, but concisely, as you can, making reference

as much as possible to Business Law concepts

Multiple Possibilities. Some questions will have more than one possible outcome; in such cases you should describe each possible outcome and the factor(s) that would determine which possible outcome would occur.

Missing Information. If there is any information that is missing that you believe is relevant to your analysis or conclusion, identify what that missing information is, and how it would affect your analysis or conclusion.

The questions generally should require no more than 4 to 5 sentences or so for a response.

Scenario 1

Under the Uniform Commercial Code, if a buyer receives goods that are “Nonconforming” the buyer has a “reasonable time” to reject those goods, otherwise the buyer is treated as having accepted the goods even though they are nonconforming. The two general ways that goods are non-conforming are if the seller delivers (1) defective goods or (2) incorrect goods (goods different from those ordered). Thus, if the buyer fails to reject the goods (i.e., not accept them) within a reasonable time, the buyer has lost its right to return the goods and must pay for those goods despite the fact they are non-conforming.

Here are some cases where a court determined whether or not a buyer had rejected

nonconforming goods within a reasonable time:

1. Grocery store had not rejected within a reasonable time when it rejected a truckload of bananas 3 days after they had arrived. The buyer had noticed, upon arrival, that the bananas were overly brown.

2. Ski shop had rejected within a reasonable time when it rejected a shipment of 200 snowboards 15 days after arrival after noticing (5 days after arrival) that the top surface of all of the snowboards contained discoloration).

3. Grocery store had rejected within a reasonable time when it rejected a shipment of 144 boxes of energy bars 7 days after arrival because it noticed the day that they arrived that all of them were the incorrect flavors.
