A court would apply the remedy of reformation thereby


Seller who is trying to sell his car to Buyer knows that Buyer idolizes ex-basketballer Michael Jordan and tells Buyer that Michael Jordan once owned the car. This was not true! Assume that Buyer purchased the car, later learned about the lie told to him by Seller and then sued to rescind the contract.
