Question

Fran promises to pay Tim $700 for a new scooter for her own use. After Tim delivers the scooter, Fran refuses to pay Tim. Tim may recover the money under the doctrine of _____.

Answer 1

Answer: Promissory estoppel

Explanation:

Because Fran promised that he will pay $700 to Tim for that new scooter and he did not do it, Tim can get back his money with the doctrine of Promissory estoppel contract law.

This kind of contract law can help him because they did not make a legal contract and this can stop someone from going back on a promise that is given to other person and with that contract, a person who did not fulfilled  the promise must recover all the damages.
