A suspect was arrested on a charge of bank robbery. After formal charges had been filed, the suspect was scheduled for a lineup identification procedure. The suspect’s attorney was notified of the lineup and arrived at the station prior to the scheduled lineup. He was directed to wait in the hallway outside the lineup room. When the suspect was escorted into the lineup room, the officer acknowledged the attorney but did not motion for him to follow them into the lineup room. The attorney remained seated in the hallway. Inside the lineup room, the six members of the lineup, including the suspect, stood on one side of the one-way mirror in full view of the witnesses gathered on the other side in the viewing area. The lineup members stepped forward one by one for a closer inspection. After the first two lineup members had been presented, an officer realized that the suspect’s attorney was not present and immediately escorted him to the viewing area. The attorney arrived in time to witness the presentation of the suspect and the remaining three members of the lineup. Two witnesses then identified the suspect as the robber. At trial, if the defense objects to the introduction of the lineup evidence, should the objection be granted?

An owner and a contractor executed a contract providing that the contractor was to construct a three-story, castle-like structure on a specified location according to plans and specifications drawn up by an architect. The total contract price was $900,000. No date was included in the contract for completion of the home, but the builder was to begin construction one week after the contract was signed.

The original plans for the three-story structure are totally incompatible with the commission’s guidelines for residences in a wilderness area. Must the builder perform the contract?

A homeowner owned a parcel of land on which she built a single-family residence. To pay for the construction, she obtained financing from a bank in exchange for a mortgage on the land. The bank promptly and properly recorded its mortgage. When the house was completed, except for the absence of an oven in the kitchen, the homeowner leased the house to a tenant for a three-year term. There was no provision in the lease agreement regarding kitchen appliances. The homeowner bought an oven from an appliance company and had it installed in the space provided around the built-in cabinets in the kitchen. To make the purchase, the homeowner signed a security agreement with the appliance company granting it a security interest in the oven in exchange for financing. The appliance company did not file or record its security interest in the oven. By the end of the lease term, the homeowner was in serious default on her mortgage payments to the bank and to the appliance company. In preparing foreclosure proceedings against the homeowner, the bank learned that the tenant was planning to remove the oven and take it with him when he moved out within the next few weeks. The bank filed an action against the tenant claiming ownership of the oven, and joined the homeowner and the appliance company as parties. Which party has a superior claim to the oven?
