Legal Question in Consumer Law in California

Taking merchant to small claims court

We paid for a slab of granite which the merchant failed to pick up and it was resold. The merchant refuses to refund our money stating we can pick out ''something else.'' As he failed to pick up. cut and deliver the particular piece we wanted, can he be taken to Small Claims Court for failure to deliver paid for goods?

Yes. Uniform Commercial Code (Cal. Commercial Code) Section 2-601 provides that the goods must exactly conform to what was contracted for. This is also known as the Perfect Tender Rule.
