Jermal has been the owner of a car dealership for a number of years. One day, Jermal sold one of his most expensive cars to Kessler. At the time of the sale, Jermal thought Kessler acted in a peculiar manner, but he gave the matter no further thought until four months later, when Kessler's court-appointed guardian appeared at Jermal's office, returned the car, and demanded Kessler's money back. The guardian informed Jermal that Kessler had been adjudicated mentally incompentant two months earlier by a proper court.
