Answer each question with two paragraph.
1. Based on material found in "Crimes" Chapter (Chapter 8):
Bernard Flinn operated a business known as Harvey Investment Co., Inc./High Risk Loans. Flinn worked as a loan broker, matching those who came to him with lenders willing to loan them money given their credit history and the amount involved. From 1982 through 1985, Flinn found loans for five people. Indiana requires that persons engaged in the business of brokering loans obtain a license from the state. Flinn was prosecuted for brokering loans without having a license. He raised the defense that he did not know that a license was required and that, accordingly, he lacked the criminal intent to broker loans without having a license. Does Flinn have a good defense?
2. Based on material found in Chapter 12 "Nature and Classes of Contracts" Chapter (Chapter 12):
When Harriet went away for the summer, Landry, a house painter, painted her house. He had a contract to paint a neighbors house but painted Harriets house by mistake. When Harriet returned from vacation, Landry billed her for $3,100, which was a fair price for the work. She refused to pay. Landry claimed that she had a quasi-contractual liability for that amount. Was he correct?
