Question

Kenneth purchased a car from his local dealership, Quartent Cars. However, since the car was not available in the color that Kenneth favored, the sales contract stipulated that Kenneth could immediately pick up the car of his preferred color from a nearby warehouse. The warehouse was owned by Mr. Henderson. Kenneth received the document of title for the car upon payment and presented it to Mr. Henderson a week later. But Mr. Henderson informed Kenneth that the car was damaged during a fire at the warehouse. What role does Mr. Henderson fulfill in the contract?\

Answer 1

Answer:

Mr. Henderson is the bailee

Explanation:

In contract law, the bailee is the person or organization that receives possession of a property or products by a contract of bailment. The contract of bailment requires that the bailee returns the property or products back to the bailor (person or organization that gave them the property) when required. The bailee is responsible for safe keeping the property or products handed to them as part of the contract of bailment.
