A mother had a six-year-old daughter and a three-year-old son. The son and daughter often played together. When she came in to check on the children in their playroom, the mother would often find that the daughter had locked the son in a small closet with no lights as a “timeout” for misbehaving in their game. Although the mother repeatedly told the daughter not to do this, the daughter continued to lock her brother in the closet. Finally, the mother resorted to sitting and reading in the playroom while the children played. Her presence prevented the daughter from locking the son in the closet. One day, a neighbor’s six-year-old daughter came over to play. The mother left the two girls alone in the playroom, and when she came back to check on them twenty minutes later, she discovered that her daughter had locked the girl in the closet. The girl was crying, and her hands and feet were bruised from trying to kick the door open. If the neighbor files a suit against the mother for negligence, is the neighbor likely to succeed?

A mechanic was rebuilding an antique car in his garage. One day, a woman complimented the mechanic’s work on the car. The mechanic told her that the car should be done within the next week and offered to sell it to her for $100,000. The woman wanted to think about it, so the mechanic told her that he would hold the car for her for a week. Two days later, the woman discovered that the mechanic had just sold the antique car to a foreign collector for $150,000. She immediately went to the mechanic’s garage and discovered that the car was still there.

Prior to the beginning of the season for a recreational softball league, the manager of one of the teams phoned a friend who has a shop that imprints and sells various types of clothing. The manager told the friend that he needed 20 customized jerseys in the team’s color, green, with the team’s name imprinted on the front and each player’s name on the back. The friend agreed to do so at the cost of $30 per jersey. The friend asked the manager to send her an e-mail, as a reminder of their agreement. The manager sent a signed e-mail the following day that contained the terms of the agreement, except that the manager mistakenly typed “17” rather than “20” as the number of jerseys needed. The friend imprinted 20 green jerseys with the team’s name and each player’s name, and called the manager to tell him to come pick up the jerseys. The manager informed the friend that he no longer needed the jerseys because the league had disbanded due to an inability to field enough teams. When the manager refused to pay for the jerseys, the friend sued him for $600 in damages. The manager asserted the Statute of Frauds as a defense. What amount of damages is the court likely to award the friend?
