Legal Question in Business Law in Illinois

Re: Promises

Not necessarily. While Britney is contractually obligated to perform, and may be subject to damages, there is a small matter of the 13th amendment. Courts are very reluctant to require performance of a contract like the one you described because it could constitute forced labor (a bit too much like slavery). More likely is that a Court will force Britney to pay money for someone to deliver the couch unless she does so herself.
