Peter wаs а tutоr whо hаd just mоved to a new town across state. In his old town, Peter had been going to his students’ homes to tutor solo, making a profit of $5,000/month, but reckoned that it would be more efficient and thus more profitable for him to set up business at a tutoring center, hiring other tutors too to expand. On July 1, Peter hired two tutors, Al and Ben, to start working for him on August 20. Peter entered into a valid enforceable contract on July 15 with Dodd, Co., a company that leased commercial spaces, for Peter to rent a space for a tutoring center from Dodd for $3,000/month. The lease was for a year and was to start on August 15. Peter pre-paid Dodd the first month’s rent. Peter also told Dodd that he wanted to be up and running in the new space by August 20 for the back-to-school season. Peter then bought furniture for the tutoring center, to be delivered to the center on August 15. On August 15, Dodd informed Peter that the space was not yet ready, but that it would be on October 15—a breach of contract. The furniture that Peter had ordered arrived on August 15, but because the space was not ready, Peter took the furniture and stored it in a storage unit, with a charge of $250/month. On August 16, Peter ordered flowers for $300 to be delivered to the space on August 20. The flowers that Peter ordered arrived on August 20, but, left outside on the curb as the space was not ready, soon wilted and were thrown away. The space was finally ready on October 15, and Peter moved in the furniture and set up the tutoring center. Peter opened the doors of the center on October 20. Peter, Al, and Ben had not been able to tutor, but Peter had had to pay Al and Ben their wages, each $4,000/month. Peter claimed that he would have profited $10,000/month at the center between August 15 and October 15 with the combination of the back-to-school season, when parents would likely be more interested in enrolling their children in tutoring, and the work of Al and Ben with himself. Peter sued Dodd. What would be his remedies, if any? Discuss.
