Now, before Professor Fried move us on to our next Contract Law online lecture legal case. He will give us a tricky twist to the Hamer verses Sidway case, in another extraordinary exception coordinated bargain-for-exchanges offer litigation paradoxical situations is a follow: 

What if, Hamer (the Defendant [the nephew]) on or about his twentieth (20th) birthday was seen with his friends by Sidway’s (the Plaintiff’s [the uncle’s]) friends who[m] saw his nephew at the local pool hall:

 

1.       drinking alcoholic beverages such as, gin or whiskey;

2.       using illegal drugs or controlled substances such as, marijuana, MDMA or prescription opioids;

3.       using vulgar or profanity languages; and

4.       gambling at the poker table.

And, Sidway’s (the Plaintiff’s [the uncle’s]) friends had reported Hamer (the Defendant [his nephew]) behavior to Sidway (the Plaintiff [the uncle]). 

As a consequence, could Sidway (the Plaintiff [the uncle]) sue Hamer (the Defendant [his nephew]) over their coordinated bargain-for-exchanges offer agreements breach of contract? 

After, Hamer (the Defendant [the nephew]) had breach Sidway (the Plaintiff [his uncle]) real cooperation in trusts, promises, and commitments contract offer from an abided agreement in not to drink, smoke, use profanity languages or gamble. 

And, do you remember in the Hamer verses Sidway case in which, Hamer (the Plaintiff [the nephew]) sue Sidway (the Defendant [the uncle]) estate, and won. After, Sidway (the Defendant [the uncle]) death and, Hamer (the Plaintiff [his nephew]) had abided by Sidway (the Defendant [his uncle]) agreements not to drink, smoke, use profanity languages or gamble before his twenty first (21st) birthday. 

What do you think?
