Question

2. Davis contracts with Erica to buy a certain horse on her behalf. Erica asks Davis not to reveal her identity. Davis makes a deal with Farmland Stables, the owner of the horse, and makes a down payment. Erica does not pay the rest of the price. Farmland Stables sues Davis for breach of contract. Can Davis hold Erica liable for whatever damages he has to pay? Why or why not?

Answer 1

Yes, Davis is able to hold Erica liable for the damages he is being sued for

Step-by-step explanation:

The vital factor to be considered here is that there was a "signed contract" which directly gives Davis the right to hold Erica liable for damages. Erica failed to keep to her own end of the deal and Davis took it upon himself to actualize the terms of the contract. Erica is to settle Davis immediately or be ready to appear in court.
