start there is a little girl named Naheed who is just five years old. She is a minor so no
claims can be made against her in any case. Mr. Arif, Naheed’s father, is involved in
many business transactions. He is trying to sell his scooter for which he has made
certain statements that may or may not be true. If Mr. Arif is knowingly
misrepresenting the model of the scooter then it is a fraud and claims can be made
against him.

merchant but this time Mr. Arif refused to honor his promise of delivering certain
merchandise which is a beach of contract and Mr. Arif can be sued for it.

designer’s outlet. She demanded her money back along with damages. As Mr. Arif
did not performed the work according to the contract hence claims can be made

CASE STUDY
1. Claims against Naheed for unpaid price of crisps.
The claims against Naheed for unpaid price of crisps would not be successful she is a
minor. According to the law “A minor is a person who has not completed 18 years of
age”. Whereas naheed is just 5 years old.
A person can only recover reasonable value of the goods if he has supplied
necessaries to a minor. Since crisps are not necessaries therefore Naheed is not liable
to pay for them.
2. Claims against Mr. Arif for statements as to: model, speed, paint,
(scooter sale).
Model: Here if Mr. Arif is knowingly making false statement by saying that it is a
1967 model then it is a fraud, because the registration papers have been misplaced. In
this case claims against Mr. Arif can be successful. The other party may avoid the
contract and sue for damages.
Speed: Mr. Arif’s statement that it can go s fast as a bullet was not a statement of
fact, and the other party has not relied upon it, therefore, no claims can be made in
this matter.
Paint: Mr. Arif was quite sure about the originality of the paint. The other party can
discover it with ordinary diligence whether the paint is original or not. So in my
opinion no claims can be made in this case as well.
