Cheryl is a 17-year-old high school student who was elected homecoming queen and does part-time modeling to earn money for college. She has an important interview with a modeling agency and wants to make a good impression, so she withdraws $5,000 from

her savings and buys a designer outfit and a fur coat for the interview. A week later, she returns the coat to the department store and says she would like her money back. The store is reluctant to take the items. What are Cheryl's rights? Explain.


The issue is whether the coat is a necessary item for Cheryl under the circumstances. Although it is true that Cheryl has the right to avoid the contract because she is a minor, she is responsible for the reasonable value of necessary items. Because she is employed as a model, the coat may be found to be a necessary item for her and, if so, she is liable for the reasonable value of it since the sale of the coat is an executed contract.
