These two phrases "Bill and mary sign a contract ... " and "the contract states that the shoes will come on 4 wooden pallets ... " sums it up. No more arguements. The case is over. This is a breach of contract i. e one party has broken the terms of the agreement. Since she does not want the shoes and has sued bill on fraudulent misrepresentation. She'll certainly win. Bill agrees to one thing and now he couldn't meet up to the terms of the agreement. Suing for fraudulent misrepresentation is as much a victory for Mary as suing on any other grounds (I'm talking about this specific case) since Bill has broken a condition for the agreement.
