Darren goes to a monster truck rally. Before going to the rally, he does not read the back of his ticket, which states "Monster truck rallies are extremely loud and noisy. Ear protection is highly recommended. By purchasing this ticket, the bearer of the ticket has expressly assumed any and all risk of ear injury associated with attending this event." Darren, not having read the back of the ticket, does not bring earplugs or other protective ear equipment to the rally. After the rally, he has constant ringing in his ears and cannot clearly hear people talk to him. Did Darren expressly assume the risk of ear injury? What about impliedly? Why or why not?

A man named Bob Smith believes that he is Santa Claus (who delivers presents to all the children around the world on Christmas Eve). In fact, he is not Santa, but he has believed this for many years. He signs his name "Santa." He signs many contracts as "Santa," and he refers to his wife as "Mrs. Claus" even though her name is actually Betty Smith. She puts up with it, because he really does believe he is Santa, and because she loves him and because his wages from his job at Hasbro toys pays the bills. One day he enters a contract with your company to hire you to build him a gigantic workshop in his backyard so he can build his toys and stable his "eight tiny reindeer." In return he will pay you $120,000 for the construction. When his wife learns of this deal, she tries to reject it because it is voidable due to his lack of contractual capacity. Was this contract voidable, or valid and enforceable? Answer the questions.

A sales representative in a shopping centre handed Karl a flyer promoting a style cut and shave for $12 at Lion’s Mane Barber Shop. As he was actually in need of a haircut and shave, Karl dropped by the barber shop, which was also located in the same shopping centre. When he arrived at the shop and presented his flyer to one of the barbers, he was told that there had been an error in the statement of price on the flyer - it was supposed to be $22 and not $12. The shop manager tried to convince Karl that this was still a bargain price given that a style cut and shave would normally cost $30 in other barbershops. Karl got upset, as he passed by two other barbershops in the same shopping centre that sold haircuts and shaves for $20 to $25. If he had known about the supposed mistake in the Lion’s Mane flyer, he wouldn’t have bothered coming to the shop. Answer the following: Does Karl have any legal grounds to claim the price of $12? Would your answer be different if Karl already…
Give typed explanation Kawal, a young mother with three small children, had worked at the counter of a Tim Hortons store for three years. One day, the manager observed Kawal giving a Timbit donut to a crying child who came into the store with their parents. When the manager of the store confronted Kawal about giving a donut away for free, Kawal immediately admitted to giving the donut away to the customer without paying for it. She was aware that this was against the employer’s policy, but she had been busy at the time and did not go to her purse to get the $1.50 to pay for the donut at that time. Also, knowing that day-old donuts are given away to small children in the store regularly, she felt this would be acceptable. Kawal expected to get a warning at most and was shocked when her manager terminated her employment for cause. Sarah filed a wrongful dismissal case. (PLEASE NOTE: I am not looking for your opinion.
