Mississippi Supreme Court

Relevant factsFree
Cumbest (plaintiff) sold Harris (defendant) a meticulously matched, partly self-built stereo system he had spent 15 years assembling, retaining an option to repurchase it by a specified date; when Cumbest attempted to exercise the option, Harris avoided him, and the chancery court found the system wasn't sufficiently unique to warrant specific performance and dismissed Cumbest's suit.
IssueFree
Whether specific performance can be awarded when the subject of the agreement is personal property.
