    Topic Introduction: 
    Under New Mexico law does a business organization materially breach a contract for services when the business employees during the installation of metal siding on a home failed to install underlayment between siding and the frame of a home?
    On January 1, 2023, Sesame LLC, a home painting company, entered into a contract with Grover, homeowner, to install siding on Grover’s home in Edgewood, New Mexico. The Sesame contract stated in part:
    Sesame, LLC is a fully licensed contractor with extensive experience painting and beautifying homes in the State of New Mexico, and is deeply familiar with the diverse weather throughout the State. 
    Sesame, LLC prides itself in employing competent, experienced, and well-trained employees.
    All work is done with care and competence, and is compliant with the local and State codes, regulations, and laws. 
    Sesame, LLC stands by its workmanship and completion of all projects in a timely manner. 
    Sesame, LLC agrees to fully install metal siding on client’s home in a timely manner. It is estimated that the full installation will be 6 weeks from the date the project is initiated. 
    Sesame, LLC agrees to initiate the project within three (3) weeks of client’s 50% payment of the total contracted price. 
    The contract was for a total price of $75,000, and required a 50% payment before work was started. Grover paid $37,500 on February 1, 2023. On March 1, 2023, Sesame began work on Grover’s home, after the metal siding was delivered to Sesame, LLC. On March 20, 2023, Sesame employees began installing the metal siding (after removal of the original siding and patching of the frame). Sesame did not install underlayment between the metal siding and the frame of the house. On April 1, 2023, Grover contacted Sesame to inquire about the lack of underlayment between the metal siding and the wooden framing of the home. Sesame LLC advised it was not required and was not part of the contract. Sesame, LLC advised that if Grover required underlayment an additional cost of $25,000 was required. Grover did not have the additional amount and did not demand underlayment. After the siding was installed on April 20, 2023, Grover was advised by the local building commission that underlayment was a regulated requirement and that the failure to install underlayment would be required. The board also advised Grover that Sesame LLC was not licensed to install metal siding, and that specific licensing and a permit (which was not sought) was a requirement under the local code and State regulations. Grover advised Sesame. Sesame denied any violation and refused to install the underlayment.

    Tips for Success: An aim of business law studies is to assist students in focusing on the key legal principles and factors associated with the practical business areas. Business law largely dictates how to build and run a company; however, the laws further aim to protect liberties and rights, resolve various disputes, maintain order, and set standards for businesses and corporations, and their relationships with individuals and government agencies. One way to focus and evaluate is by evaluating through writing business law scenarios. This enables students to advance writing skills and better succeed in the field of business law study. One more essential thing for business law students is to boost intellectual abilities and improve approach to academic studies and professional activity; this implies a profound analysis of the corresponding legal evaluation. Academic writing is an excellent method to motivate evaluation of legal matters and examine various business law cases, Here are some helpful ideas in writing this essay:
    Before you start writing your essay consider the goals you are trying to achieve. 
    You may make use of legal jargon, but if this business law writing assignment is aimed at language outside your current knowledge field, legal jargon can create confusion and mislead your reader. 
    Short documents, brief statements, and expressions capture the readers’ attention – better than long ones. Thus, express your ideas clearly and concisely. For instance, get rid of redundant adjectives and deliver a logical analysis.
    No matter if you are to discuss some corporate law cases, or if you are answering the question of “why is business law important?”, try to use active voice where possible. Statements in active voice are clearer and often shorter than those in passive voice. This will allow you to win your reader’s attention and trust. 
    MS Word will check your document highlighting any typos, but this will not make your paper perfect. You should read your document aloud to find any mistakes. 
    Follow the instructions and rubric expectations.
