What areas of torts do we need to focus on right now? I will pull a few MC to practice with you all this week! For now, here is a products liability question since it is a torts/contracts cross-over area (in other words it is a torts question but contract principles will help you solve it): The manufacturer made a product that was sold over the counter for treatment of dandruff and dry scalp conditions. A doctor purchases a bottle at a drugstore. A statement on the label read, "This product will not harm normal scalp or hair." The doctor used the product as directed. Bcause of a rare scalp condition making him allergic to one of the ingredients, the product irritated his scalp causeing him much pain and discomfort. In an action for negligence by the doctor against the manufacturer, which of the following additional facts or inferences, if it was the only one true. would be most effective in the manufacturer's defense?

On August 1, 2021, Bill decided to buy a home in the City of La Verne, California. He downloaded the Zillow app to his phone and began scrolling through the homes listed for sale in the City of La Verne. Zillow is a real estate app that lists all houses currently for sale throughout the state of California; the application provides the sellers name, house address, pictures, total square footage, price, and other information that may be relevant to the sale and purchase of any given home. After viewing several homes on the Zillow App, he saw a home on 7th street he was interested in purchasing. The house was being offered for sale at a price of $750,000. He immediately emailed the seller through the Zillow app stating he would like to purchase the home for the price listed. The seller (on that same day) responded via email stating that the house was no longer available for sale; however, the seller had another home on 5th Street that was very similar in size, lay-out and price. On August 2, Bill emailed Seller and demanded that he be sold the 7th Street House because Bill had emailed his acceptance to Seller to the email address provided by Seller on the Zillow App and that he accepted all the terms of Seller’s offer as articulated on the Zillow App. Did Bill and Seller form a valid contract? IRAC your rationale in the comments!
