Chapter 9 Discussion Questions 

QUESTIONS

1. Boboli Co. wanted to promote its "California-style" pizza, which it sold in super­ markets. The company contracted with Highland Group, Inc., to produce two million recipe brochures, which would be inserted in the carton when the freshly baked pizza was still very hot. Highland contracted with Comark Merchandising to print the brochures. But when Comark asked for details concerning the pizza, the carton, and so forth, Highland refused to supply the information. Comark printed the first lot of 72,000 brochures, which Highland delivered to Boboli. Unfortunately, the hot bread caused the ink to run, and customers opening the carton often found red or blue splotches on their pizzas. Highland refused to accept additional brochures, and Comark sued for breach of contract. Highland  defended  by claiming that Comark had breached its warranty of merchantability. Please comment.

2. At the end of a skateboard exhibition, one of the performers tossed a skateboard into the rowdy crowd. David rushed to catch the prize but was injured when his fellow spectators trampled him to snatch it away. What is the likely outcome if David sues the promoter of the skateboarding show for negligence?
