Jason is so pleased that he puts in a new swimming pool to celebrate. However, the developer changes his mind and decides not to develop the subdivision. Jason is angry and asks if he can sue the developer, particularly since he can establish reliance. What would you tell Jason and why?

Answer 1

Answer:

Stay Away and Forget

Explanation:

This is hope-despair situation. Since Jason has no legal agreement with the builder who is not obliged to go ahead with plan the anger of Jason is not justified. I would tell Jason to just stay away from such dreamy thoughts outcome of which is based on other man's plan and projects. Jason should also not do any more small investment in his house just with the hope of builder's plan. There is a suggestion if Jason could motivate the builder to go ahead with his earlier plan, but if he thinks he ma not able to do it he should forget it like a momentary dream of hope and despair.
