Cardigan History

The Cardigan family has made a name for themselves in the

sweater industry whereby they have designed sweaters for a

variety of uses and for a wide target audience ranging from toddlers

to business professionals. Cassandra, whom everyone calls

Cassie, is the CEO of CARDWARE Inc., Camoni is the

spokesperson for the sweater line, and Candie models the lines in

the professional sphere. They often use their mother, Camille, as a

business consultant for input about various new ideas and

marketing because she was the manager and agent of her son’s

glove company. Cora and Caley, Camille’s two youngest daughters

from her second failed marriage to Bo Jenkins, are co-office

managers of their headquarters located in Silkadonia.

Camille has developed a good network among those in the fashion

industry, especially the seamstresses who have been hired by well-

known celebrities. One day, Camille spoke with Sonya, the owner

and Lead Seamstress for Shazam Clothing Industries. Shazam is a

leading manufacturer of unique limited edition clothes in Silkadonia.

Camille presented Sonya with her order to sew a limited number

(500) of hot pink and black machine knitted sweaters with a

matching knit hat. Each sweater was to have a number and Candie

Cardigan’s signature on a label sewn onto the bottom right side of

the sweater. The hats would have the same label with matching

number to its sweater, but sewn on the right side of the turned up

hat cuff. Sonya agreed to make each sweater and hat pair for $100.

Camille’s plan was to sell each set for $300 thereby making a $200

profit per set. While discussing the type of yarn to be used, Sonya’s

cell phone rang. Sonya pushed a piece of paper and a color palette

towards Camille and whispered “write the type of yarn you want

used and exact dye lots” and I will begin work on this right away.

Camille did as requested, but forgot to give Sonya the traditional 25

% down payment. The down payment has always been used to

purchase the materials.

Sonya completed production of all 500 sweaters in record time and

has presented Camille with an invoice for payment for the same. At

the bottom of the invoice, the words, “Payment Due Upon Receipt”

were written. Camille changed her mind about wanting the

sweaters and hats, as she decided that the items would not be as

profitable as originally anticipated. Sonya now comes to the law

firm you work for, P. Strami, and Hammond, Attorneys at Law, and

wants to know if she has any recourse. Attorney Strami hands you

the following instructions and asks that you draft a memorandum to

him incorporating your research.

Dear Paralegal:

Please prepare a 2–3-page double-spaced memorandum in size 12

contract principles of offer, acceptance, and consideration. State whether or

not any of the crucial parts of the initial offer may be missing.

 Further, please research whether or not Camille and Sonya’s prior course of

dealings has an impact on the parties’ communications and whether or not

Sonya would be successful against CARDWARE Inc. should a breach of

contract lawsuit be brought against her.
