Study each of the following cases carefully. Briefly state the principle of law and your decision.
Specificity of Consideration Forrer was an employee of Sears for many years. He eventually left because of health problems and began operating a farm. Sears persuaded Forrer to return to work on a part-time basis, and about one month later promised permanent employment if Forrer gave up the farm and returned to work full-time. Forrer did so, but four months later he was discharged without cause. Forrer sued for damages, lost the case in the trial court, and appealed. Will Forrer be successful in his complaint against Sears? What consideration was promised by Forrer and Sears? [ Forrer v. Sears, Roebuck Co. , 153 N.W.2d 587 (Wisconsin)]
