Assignment 1- Read the following case studies and thoroughly answer the questions that follow in at least one paragraph each. Be sure to explain the reasoning behind your answer.

Case Study 1

Steve and Bill go out drinking. After Steve has had so many drinks that Bill knows (or should know) that Steve is very intoxicated, Steve says to Bill, "I'll sell you my house for $100,000." Bill accepts. The fair market value of Steve's house is $100,000.

Will Steve be able to avoid this transaction? Why or why not?

Case Study 2

Steve writes a letter to Bill one day saying, "I will sell you my house for $100,000." Completely unbeknownst to Bill, at the time Steve wrote the letter he was utterly intoxicated. The fair market value for the house is $100,000.

Will Steve have to sell his house to Bill? Why or why not?

Case Study 3

Mary, a longtime law professor, has been entering into quite a few contracts in recent months. One of those contracts was for the purchase of a riding lawn mower. Unbeknownst to the sales clerk who entered Mary into the contract, Mary is suffering from Alzheimer's, but has not been deemed incompetent by the state. On the day of delivery, the sales clerk delivers the lawn mower to Mary's apartment. Mary is surprised by the delivery of the mower and has no recollection of ordering it. The clerk shows her the contract.

Is this contract voidable and why?

Assignment 2- While working for Jaguar of Troy, Jeffery Perry applied for leave under the FMLA, in order to take care of his son, Victor. Victor had learning disabilities, attention deficit disorder, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. While Victor took medication and visited a doctor every six months, he could feed and dress himself. He rode the bus to and from school, played video games, watched TV, played with the neighborhood children, and rode his bike.

Two weeks after taking the leave, Jaguar informed Perry his leave was not considered to be covered under the FMLA. At the end of the summer, Perry inquired about his job and Jaguar told him it was filled, and there were no other jobs available. Perry sued claiming Jaguar violated the FMLA by failing to permit him to return to his job.

Did Jaguar's refusal of Perry's leave violate FMLA laws? Why or why not? Support your answer using available resources.
