On August 18, Peter, age 17, offered a local grocery store 2000 pounds offresh cantaloupes from his parents' farm. The store accepted Peter's offerthat day and the cantaloupes were ripe & ready for delivery. However, thestore waited for two weeks before sending its delivery truck on September1. In the meantime, Peter turned 18 on August 22. He sold thecantaloupes to a local supermarket on August 25 before they spoiled. Thegrocery store wants to sue Peter on the grounds that it cancelled itsregular supply of cantaloupes in reliance on Peter's offer. Will the grocerystore prevail?

1 No. Peter's offer should have contained a deadline. Since no deadlinehad been established, the court will construe the contract against thegrocery store.

2 Yes. Once Peter turned 18, he lost his presumptive legal ability todisaffirm the contract on the ground that he was a minor.

3 Yes. Peter's offer should have contained a deadline. Since no deadlinehad been established, the court will construe the contract againstPeter

4 No. A minor can disaffirm a contract within a reasonable time afterreaching the age of majority. While a reasonable time depends on thecircumstances in every case, the court will find that Peter correctlydisaffirmed the contract within a reasonable time, considering that 2000pounds of cantaloupes have a limited shelf life before going bad
