Juan has notified Maria in writing of the mold and leak issue. He is concerned about the premises becoming unsafe to live in. It has been 14 days since he emailed her his notification. What are Juan’s options if Maria declines to do the repairs?UCC Sales ContractThe following question is based on the Sales Contract found in the Contracts Module.

You ordered goods thinking it was a particular product. You wanted Razor scooters and that was the original oral communication when the selling merchant was first contacted by you. You both agreed on Razor scooters. Thereafter, in phone conversations, you and the seller just talked about scooters. The seller prepared a written contract. The selling merchant shipped scooters but not Razor scooters. Upon receipt of the goods, what are your merchant options under the contract?Why are text references important? Contract language does not exist in a vacuum. It is written based on the law. It is critical, therefore, to cite to the text to support your analysis.
