Griffith v. Clear Lakes Trout Co., Inc.

How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• noting that where a contract is too vague, indefinite, and uncertain as to its essential terms, and not merely ambiguous, there has been no “meeting of the minds” which is necessary for contract formation and courts will “leave the parties as they found them”
• “Reasonable certainty requires neither absolute assurance nor mathematical exactitude; rather, the evidence need only be sufficient to remove the existence of damages from the realm of speculation.”
• “The burden is upon the plaintiff to prove not only that it was injured, but that its injury was the result of defendant’s breach; both amount and causation must be proven with reasonable certainly.”
