Maurice contracted with Suzanne to feed and walk her Corgi mix dog, Baby, for $100 while Suzanne was on vacation for one week. One day before Suzanne was to leave, Maurice came over and said that Baby would be a significant amount of trouble and that he would have to receive $150 in order to walk and feed Baby. Suzanne reluctantly agreed. When she returned from vacation, she handed Maurice $100 and refused to pay more. Maurice threatens to take her to small claims court. What would be the likely result?

    Maurice would lose.

    Explanation:

    Apparently Maurice is not a good guy, a description of his character and work ethics would probably result in many censored words. What he did is defined as economic duress and it is illegal.

    Economic duress happens when one party refuses to perform an already agreed contract and demands the other party to pay them more money (or give more consideration) for performing the previously agreed terms.
