Hugo, a 21-year-old man, is birthday shopping for his mother over the online classifieds. While browsing the Internet for sale ads, he notices a particularly good deal on a 14-carat gold necklace with matching 1/3-carat diamond earrings. The seller says the jewelry is brand new, still in the box, and wants only $359 for the entire set. Hugo immediately e-mails the seller and arranges for the purchase of the jewelry. Hugo pays the seller, receives the necklace and earrings, and intends to give them to his mother for her birthday. 1. Suppose that the reason the jewelry was brand new and at such a bargain price online was because the seller actually stole the jewelry. If the jewelry were stolen, what type of title would Hugo hold when he purchased the jewelry? Explain.
2. Now suppose that the goods were not stolen. The seller purchased the jewelry on clearance at wholesale price, and that is why he can offer such a good deal. Suppose, however, that Hugo bought the diamond jewelry with a check. Come to find out, it was a bad check and the check bounced. In this scenario, what kind of title does Hugo possess? Explain.
3. If Hugo's title is voidable, what can the seller do?
