Verified Answer
Individuals JN and Ware going top revail in the suit due to breach of contract by the prevention of performance by Individual JC.
Initially, Individual JC agreed to pay if Individual W ordered paint from Individual JN, but refused to pay for it later, which makes Individual JC liable to compensate the cost incurred as per the contract.
The law implies that no party shall put a stop to, obstruct, or delay the performance of another party under the contract. Both Individuals JN and W are willing to complete the task at hand and are denied to complete the task.
