Question

Mr. and Mrs. Davis, tenants, decide to have their apartment redecorated, on June 15. Contractor Jones says he will do the job for $4,000 and informs Smith (the property owner), by registered letter, the job will be completed by June 13.

Upon completion, Davis tells Jones to see Smith for payment:

a. Smith is not liable since he did not contract with Jones
b. Smith may be liable since he had noticed and did nothing
c. Smith is not liable since his wife signed for the registered letter
d. Mr. and Mrs. Davis only are liable

Answer 1

Upon completion, Davis tells Jones to see Smith for payment : Smith may be liable since he had noticed and did nothing.

Explanation:-

Yes because he had express notice by registered letter and did nothing.

The only evidence of execution, apart from registered databases, that is acknowledged by most jurisdictions.

A notification agreement is a compromise between the parties on how notifications should be issued and how their conditions should be very specific. A provision of a notification shall be an agreement between parties as to how notices on contractual issues can be received, and this provision should be very clear about its requirements.
