May opened a restaurant. After a few days, she got numerous complaints from customers that it was too hot in the restaurant. She began to look for new air conditioning units. She contacted B&O Appliances, where she had purchased many of the appliances for the restaurant. She told Mr. Smith what she needed and provided Mr. Smith with all measurements. Being awar of the layout of the restaurant, Mr. Smith decided not to go to the restaurant to review the area. He consulted various charts and other information and told May what size and type air conditioning unit to purchase. May purchased the unit recommended, Mr. Smith instilled the unit. After 2 days, it became apparent that the unit couldn't adequately tool the area because it had been installed over the kitchen fans. She contacted Mr. Smith, he agreed that the unit was insufficient in light of where located.


Before the unit could be replaced, it malfunctioned & eletrical defeat causes a fire. The fire destroyed one half of the dining area and most of the litchen.


Discuss any rights May have to recover he damages, from whom she could recover and what type of damages she could recover?

Yes a wonderful law school question and you should do your own work.

All the information about it being too small, about it being from a known vender about it being insufficient is merely junk to confuse you.

The malfunction and what caused it, so from a legal issue there is actually not enough info provided ( in real life law suit) an inspection of the unit has to be made, and the actual cause investigated by the fire marshall) but this is not what the law school wants.

This isn't the only place this is posted - I guess OP didn't like your advice.

Whoops - bad day for my reading skills. The other question posted is the OP's OTHER homework assignment. Mea culpa, Mea culpa.

I was most definitely unfair to the OP in that aspect and I apologize.

As you said, a fair amount of unimportant info in the question. Has got to be high school. I did my own homework ONCE.

Not sure maybe college law, but for sure school work
