What damages should the court award jake


Problem: Jake contracts with Berry Berry Farms for 100 pints of strawberries, 100 pints of blueberries, and 100 pints of raspberries at $2000 to prepare his award-winning desserts. He needs the berries by June 30 because he is contracted to prepare the desserts for a big banquet in Hollywood. On June 15, Berry Berry Farms notifies Jake that it will not be able to meet his needs and cancels the order. Jake sues Berry Berry Farms and wins a breach of contract action. The court has a separate hearing on damages. At the hearing, Berry Berry presents evidence that other farms in the area had the different types of berries to deliver to Jake for his desserts. Jake never attempted to find another supplier. What damages should the court award Jake? Would your response be different if Jake did attempt to find other suppliers, but no farm was able to produce the amount of berries he required?
