How courts have described this case

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

• “It is incumbent on one who advances [equitable estoppel] to prove its dominant essentials, leaving nothing to surmise or questionable inference”
• \qualified acceptance constitutes a rejection terminating the offer; it is a new proposal or counteroffer which must be accepted by the former offeror now turned offeree before a binding contract results.\
• “The burden is upon the party alleging estoppel to prove it. Estoppel is not favored by the courts, and it is incumbent upon one who advances it to prove its dominant essentials, leaving nothing to surmise or questionable inference.”
• “The rejection of an offer kills the offer. It is well settled that when an offer under an option contract has been rejected, the party rejecting cannot subsequently, at his option, accept the rejected offer and thus convert the same to an agreement by acceptance.” (citations omitted)
