could you briefly set out what you would consider Mrs.S's legal argument for her claim would be under common law? how would Carpark attempt to counter this claim?

Mrs. S should pay the $50, get receipts so she can verify the time she spent in the garage, and then see a lawyer. She has a shot an owning that garage!
