Morin v. Baystone (Aluminium Uniform Finish Case)

A contractor's work was rejected due to a provision in the construction contract stating that all matters relating to "artistic effect" were subject to the final approval of the owner. Car company hires builder to construct a factory addition with the same mill-finish as the rest of the factory, subject the final approval of the company or one of its agents. The car company didn't like the addition, so they hired another company to replace it. That company's addition had the same undesired aesthetic problem, but the agent didn't reject it. This suggests that the agent rejected the original addition in bad faith. Also, satisfaction is judged by a reasonable person standard - unreasonable to approve the second if rejected the first.

Locke v Warner Bros Inc (Clint Eastwood Case)

Ex-wife entered into a non-exclusive first look deal with a production company, thanks to her ex-husband.
