If you make someone a promise and they rely on that promise it is called "fraud in the inducement", this could be criminal but that is up to a jury to decide
You are mistaken...which is comical since you claim to be a college professor and an expert in both criminal and civil law.
Whether criminal or civil, fraud generally has several legal elements, including the following:
- Misrepresentation of a material fact
- Knowledge on the part of the accused that they were misrepresenting the fact
- The misrepresentation was made purposefully, with the intent of fooling the victim
- The victim believed the misrepresentation and relied upon it
- The victim suffered damages as a result of the misrepresentation
For a $300 wing it is not worth the effort to take it to court
Criminally it’s not about the money...it’s about punishment of a crime committed.
Civilly, it’s not worth the effort, so why bring it up? Nobody cares.
We don't know if DSS will ever be back up and running. He said so himself
Correct, which makes it hard to levy charges or civil claims against him or his Company...
My assumption stands. He will probably honor a warranty if and when he gets back in business if that warranty expired at a time his business was closed.
*pure assumption, but Tobin strikes me as an @$$, But he is one with integrity.
Why do you care about the warranty? As the Chairman mentioned, a pinch flat was never covered.
Do you know it was a pinch flat? Who makes that determination? For all we know the seam of the bladder separated...thus the warranty matters.
Happy? No. I also wouldn’t lose sleep over it.would you be happy having to go out and buy another wing when the seller said if it breaks he will fix it at a reasonable charge?
You claim you are NAUI instructor so I assumed you were still active and giving lessons. If you are not then why advertise it?
Being an instructor and owning a business are 2 different things. An instructor could be an employee. Keep assuming things that make you look foolish.
