Anderson v. Copeland

378 P.2d 1006 (1963)

Facts

D orally agreed to purchase a used tractor for the sum of $475.00. D attempted to borrow money to cover the purchase price but was unable to, and so advised P. P asked D to return the tractor, which was done within a few days. D claims the sale was conditioned on D's ability to borrow money to pay for it, while P says the sale was final and without conditions. Both parties agree that the sale contract was rescinded when P asked that the tractor be returned. A jury which returned a verdict for P in the amount of $50.00. D's motion for a new trial was overruled and D appealed.
