My boss entered a contract to deliver 5000 printers to the office max warehouse on January 10th. On December 15th, my boss called office max to inform them that the union at his factory just went on strike and that his company would not be able to deliver the printers on time. Office max needed the printers so they ordered from another supplier. On January 3rd, my boss called and said that the strike was settled and that he would be able to deliver the printers after all. Office max said "After you called last month, we decided that you breached the contract, so we ordered from someone else. We wont accept the printers from your company." My boss called his attorney and asked, "How could we breach the contract in December if we didn't have to perform until January?" What is the answer to that question?
