Blanche, Dorothy, Rose & Sofia are planning to have a yard sale. They would like to clear out some of the extra bushes and small palms from their side lawn to ensure they have enough room for the variety of floral printed wicker furniture that they are planning to sell. On Sunday afternoon, while they are outside beginning the back breaking task of clearing the lawn, Blanche's 14-year-old grandson David offers to do the work for the girls. David tells the girls that he will remove all the bushes and small palms and arrange the furniture for sale on the lawn for $200. The girls tell David that they need the work done no later than next Saturday. Everyone agrees, Dorothy cuts David a check, and they shake on the deal. Blanche then goes off to get ready for her date, Rose goes to her room to play, and Dorothy and Sofia jump in a spirited game of Gin.

On Thursday, Dorothy notices that the lawn is not clear and that no one has seen David since he had a party at their house on Monday night. Blanche calls David's parents to find out his whereabouts and learns that David has stowed away on a flight to the Bahamas and authorities will only release him to his parents on Sunday when the parents arrive in the Bahamas.

Dorothy is livid that David has broken their verbal contract because now they are unable to put the furniture out for the yard sale and want to sue David for breach of contract. Based on your reading and learning, please answer the following questions:

1. What type of contract would David and Dorothy have?

- Is the contract valid or not, and why?

2. Does Dorothy have any remedies against David?

3. Who can Dorothy seek remedy from?
