This section contains the nature of the case and procedural background.

Gironda (D) signed a contract with P for the purchase of a yellow, two-bedroom mobile home for a total purchase price of $23,028.69. D paid a $1,000 deposit. D breached the purchase contract. P then called D’s father who offered to purchase the home so D would not lose the deposit. P responded that this would not be necessary. P sold the mobile home to a third party for $22,000 and then sued D for $4,800 in lost profits and interest expense. The Court awarded P $759.45. P appealed, asserting that it was entitled to recover lost profits and greater incidental damages. D cross-appealed, in that P failed to mitigate.
