Sara and Shelley Sara and Shelley went to Best Buy to purchase an XBOX 360. As they were leaving the store, Shelley tripped on the corner of the carpet that had not been properly secured and she fractured her ankle. Because Shelley was unable to work as a snowboard instructor during peak season, she lost income for six weeks.
Mr. and Mrs. Graham Mr. and Mrs. Graham are divorced. Mr. Graham has custody of their three children. Because his job requires that he stay out of town overnight during the week, he has to hire a live-in caretaker. Mrs. Graham had agreed to share this expense as part of her support payments. Mrs. Graham has since stopped making her support payments to Mr. Graham.
Mandy Mandy had contracted with Big Top Roofers to replace the roof on her 30 year old house. After she paid for the job, she discovered that the quality of the shingles used was inferior to the quality specified in the contract.
Phoebe Phoebe bought a can of soda from a street vendor. When she opened up the can of soda, she noticed there was a thumb floating around in her delicious beverage. She became ill from the horror and may have suffered emotional pain as a result.
Steve and May Steve had his car parked by the curb on the side of the street, about 2 feet away from the sidewalk in a no-parking zone. There were no other cars parked on the street, and May was riding her bicycle down the street right along the curb. May thought she had enough room to squeeze between the curb and Steve’s car, but ran into the car, scratching it and breaking the side-view mirror.
Brent and Davis Brent and Davis were roommates. Only Brent’s name was on the rental contract, but Brent and Davis agreed to split the living costs in half. A few months later, Davis told Brent that he wasn’t going to keep paying his share of the cable bill because rarely watches TV, and stopped payments. Brent was furious because that went against what they agreed on when they moved in together.
