Original Text from the Textbook: “Harmony Development agreed to sell seven acres of a planned subdivision to Jerry Davis for $1.5 million. The contract required Harmony to spend $1.85 million improving the property so that Davis could construct a health club on it. After Harmony made the improvements, Davis informed the company that the subdivision no longer “fit in harmony” with his plans and refused to complete the purchase. Harmony sued for breach of contract. The Wyoming Supreme Court granted specific performance, calling the remedy “a means of compelling to do precisely what he should have done without being coerced by a court.” Student Sentence: A dispute arose between Harmony Development and Davis. Harmony agreed to sell the land to Davis for $1.5 million. Pursuant to the contract, Harmony made required $1.85 million in improvements to the land, but once the improvements were made Davis refused to go through with the purchase. The court awarded specific performance to Harmony as “’a means of compelling to do precisely what he should have done without being coerced by a court.’” (Miller, 2026, Chap. 10, Sec. 11-5b) Correct or Incorrect?
