    Default Rent Increases on a Rented Garage

    I kept my car in a garage which I rented from Ian at a rental of $100 per month. My car was involved in an accident and was off the road for repairs for a period of six months. During that time I had no need for the garage. Feeling sorry for me, Ian told me that I need only pay half the usual rental for that period. I gratefully accepted. After 2 months Ian had second thoughts and asked me to pay the full amount. In the meantime, I had spent the money on a bicycle to enable me to get to work.

    Please advise whether I has to pay the full amount of rental?

    Changing the homework question to make it look like your question isn't going to fool anyone that saw the other thread you posted. This is a homework question and we do not do homework.

    Pay your rent, fix your car, or find another place to store your junker.
