P breached the contract. On November 19, 1993, a developer contracted to sell the house to another couple for $840,000 with a deposit of $10,000. The resale price of the house exceeded P’s price by $193,995.30. P sued D for a return of his deposit. The court gave P the summary judgment as requested. The judge found that no loss accrued to D. D appealed to keep the deposit as liquidated damages.
