29. Phil wаs plаying with а friend in the frоnt yard while Phil’s father was inside the hоuse. Jared, a neighbоr who lived across the street, liked to keep expensive flower vases in his front yard as decoration. Phil thought it would be funny to hit his friend in the head with a soccer ball so he kicked one as hard as he could but the ball instead flew over his friend’s head and across the street into Jared’s yard, landing on one of the vases and shattering it. When Jared saw what had happened, he came over to Phil’s house but instead of apologizing, Phil tried to get smart with Jared. Jared wanted to teach Phil a lesson and said he would kill Phil in his sleep and bury him under one of his vases if he ever did what he did again. Phil got scared and ran inside and told his father how Jared had threatened him. Phil’s father was so severely disturbed by the threat that he had a serious mental breakdown requiring medical treatment. Can the father recover for emotional distress against Jared?
ESSAY ONE (1 hоur)One fаll mоrning, Dоnаld decided to tаke his friend Alan’s plane for a joyride. Although Donald did not ask Alan’s permission before taking the plane, he figured it would be okay because Alan routinely got angry about things Donald did, but his anger quickly passed. Donald’s plan was to fly north for about 35 miles and make a low pass over his other friend Brian’s home before circling back to the airport. About one mile from Brian’s home as Donald was descending to make his low pass, the plane began to experience mechanical problems. Donald’s gradual descent quickly changed to a rapid and uncontrolled descent. For several seconds it appeared that the plane would fly directly into Brian’s home, but Donald was able to change course at the last second crashing into two cars parked in Brian’s driveway. When Brian came outside to see what happened, he found the airplane engulfed in flames with Donald standing nearby. Together they worked to put out the fire on the plane, as well as the fire that had spread to the two cars. Ultimately, Brian determined that both cars were drivable, but one of the cars had a noxious smell of burnt plastic inside the passenger compartment that would not go away. When Alan arrived at the scene after receiving a call from Brian, it was not immediately clear to Alan whether the plane was salvageable. His initial thought was that the damage was relatively minor and he might even be able to fly the plane back to the airport. Discuss the rights of Alan and Brian, if any, against Donald and any defenses he may raise.
