Valid modification of the contract


Case Problem:

The plaintiff and the defendant entered into a three year contract in which the defendant would be the sole supplier of steel parts that the plaintiff used in its products. A dispute arose after the defendant sought to surcharge the parts sold to reflect increased costs. The plaintiff fi led a lawsuit for breach of contract, and the jury returned a verdict in favor of the defendant, finding on a special verdict that there had been a valid modification to the contract, based solely on e-mails between the parties. Is this evidence enough to support a reformation of the contract? [ Copeland Corporation, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. Choice Fabricators Incorporated, Defendant-Appellee, No. 08-3194, 6th Cir. Ct. of Appeals, 09a0622n.06; 345 Fed. Appx. 74; 2009 U.S. App. LEXIS 19986; 2009 FED App. 0622N (6th Cir.); 69 U.C.C. Rep. Serv. 2d (Callaghan) 802.]
