Campbell v. Carr
603 S.E.2d 625, Web 2004 S.C. App. Lexis 276 (2004)
Court of Appeals of South Carolina
“This inadequate consideration combined with Carr’s weakness of mind, due to her schizophrenia and depression, makes it inequitable to order specific performance.”
—Anderson, Judge
Facts
Martha M. Carr suffered from schizophrenia and depression. Schizophrenia is a psychotic disorder that is characterized by disturbances in perception, inferential thinking, delusions, hallucinations, and grossly disorganized behavior. Depression is characterized by altered moods and diminished ability to think or concentrate. Carr was taking prescription drugs for her mental diseases. Carr, a resident of New York, inherited from her mother a 108-acre tract of unimproved land in South Carolina. Carr contacted Raymond C. and Betty Campbell (Campbell), who had leased the property for 30 years, about selling the property to them. Carr asked Campbell how much the property was worth, and Campbell told Carr $54,000. Carr and Campbell entered into a written contract for $54,000. Campbell paid Carr earnest money. Carr subsequently missed the closing day for the sale of the property, returned the earnest money, and refused to sell the property to Campbell. Campbell sued Carr to obtain a court judgment ordering Carr to specifically perform the contract. At trial, evidence and expert witness testimony placed the value of the property at $162,000. Testimony showed that Campbell knew the value of the property exceeded $54,000. The court agreed with Campbell and ordered Carr to specifically perform the contract. Carr appealed.
Issue
Does Carr, because of her mental diseases of schizophrenia and depression, lack the mental capacity to enter into the contract with Campbell?
Language of the Court
This inadequate consideration combined with Carr’s weakness of mind, due to her schizophrenia and depression, makes it inequitable to order specific performance.
Decision
The court of appeals held that Carr’s mental diseases of schizophrenia and depression affected her ability to make an informed decision regarding the sale of the property. The court held that Carr did not have to sell her property to Campbell.
Ethics Questions
Should Carr have been relieved of her contracts? Did the Campbells act unethically in this case?

Assignment #3: Independent Samples T test Conduct an Independent Samples T test to answer the questions based on the following scenario. (Assume a non-directional research hypothesis (two-tailed test) and a level of significance of .05) The superintendent who collected data for Assignments 1 and 2, continued to examine the district’s data. One question that concerned the superintendent’s constituencies was the difference between the school performance scores of the superintendent’s district and a neighboring district that had similar demographic and socio-economic characteristics.
The superintendent collected the following information:
School performance scores for superintendent’s district: 72 70 70 71 68 74 66 80 71 74 68 74 74 70 76 67 65 59 72 81 82 83 68 78 80 69 75
School performance scores for comparison district: 71 62 62 71 65 74 61 60 67 63 62 71 66 62 61 71 66 68 72 65 71 86 71 89 67 73
1. What are the mean and standard deviation for the superintendent’s district? 2. What are the mean and standard deviation for the comparison district? 3. State an appropriate null hypothesis for this analysis. 4. What is the observed or computed value of t? 5. What is the value of the degrees of freedom that are reported in the output (equal variances assumed)? 6. What is the reported level of significance? 7. Based on the reported level of significance, would you reject the null hypothesis?

A psychopharmacologist conducted a study on the effects of the drug lithium for the treatment of depression. Twenty-seven patients were chosen whose principal problem was depression. There were 3 groups: Placebo, Low Dose (50mg) and High Dose (200mg). There were 9 patients in each group. At the end of 30 days, the patients were evaluated for their level of depression, with higher scores indicating higher levels of depression.
Fill in the blanks with the appropriate numbers, setting alpha=.05.

Which of the following is true of between-subjects ANOVA?
A) Participants provide data for just one condition/level of the independent variable.
B) Participants contribute data to every condition/level of the independent variable.
3. A between-subject ANOVA is similar to an independent t-test, EXCEPT _____.
A) that in a between-subjects ANOVA , the IV cannot have more than two levels
B) that in a between-subjects ANOVA, the DV cannot exceed the alpha level
C) that in a between-subjects ANOVA, the IV can have three or more levels
D) that in a t test, the DV has to be nominal
In a J=3 between-subjects ANOVA, we find that the p-value is 0.003. We therefore conclude that:
A) there is no statistical evidence that any group mean is different from any other
B) all group means are equal
C) all group variances are equal
D) all group means are different
E) the null hypothesis should be rejected

2. Sally and Tom decide to go into business, which they call “Pelatone,” which manufactures and sells exercise bicycles. They sign a partnership agreement that requires Sally to contribute $100,000 and Tom to contribute $140,000 in capital to start the firm. The partnership agreement says nothing about the management of the firm or the division of profits. Without Sally’s knowledge, Tom informs the owner of United Wheel Co, that he represents the Pelatone and signs a large contract with United to buy wheels to be used on Pelatone’s bicycles. In its first year of operations, Pelatone makes a profit of $240,000.
1. What are the Tom’s and Sally’s rights with respect to the management of the firm?
2. Is Pelatone bound to the contract with United? Why or why not?
3. How should Pelatone’s first year’s profits be divided between Tom and Sally? Why?
