Answer:

In a common law jurisdiction, the property that the defendant is guilty of larceny is the lawnmower.

Explanation:

Larceny or theft is the intentional possession of someone's property for the purpose of permanently depriving the owner of its use.  The property may be the person's identity, intellectual property, services, and personal property.  Though the automobile was totally ruined, the neighbor did not initially intend to dispossess the owner of the car.  But he intended to dispossess the owner of the lawnmower since he was about to trade it in for a new one, which will belong to him and not the former owner.

Manpreet reserved a room at the Moonlight Motel. At the last minute, her plans changed making it impossible for her to travel. S
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer: Yes. The motel within its rights to refuse her admittance

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Manpreet reserved a room at the Moonlight Motel but couldn't later travel and therefore called her sister, Ravinder, to make use of the motel room in her place.

We are further told that Ravinder was refused admittance to the room on the grounds that there was a waiting list and she was not on it.

Based on the nice scenario, the motel was within its rights to refuse her admittance. It should be noted that the hotel room wasn't booked in her name but rather booked in Manpreet's name. The thing that Manpreet could have done is to inform the motel when she realize that she couldn't come and change the terms of the contract by saying her sister will be coming. But in this scenario, the motel is within its rights to refuse her admittance.
