Liability Insurance

Moser had no automobile liability insurance, although it was required by state law. She negligently collided with Chang's car. Change threatened to sue if Moser failed to pay $1,000 for pain and suffering and $2,000 for car repairs. Moser gave Change a check for $3,000. Then she stopped payment on it, claiming duress.

Was it duress? Explain.

  1. No it isn't duress. Chang did threaten to sue Moser, however, it had to do directly with the incident. If he threatened to sue her for something else, duress may have been involved. She can't claim duress, especially since she had no insurance.

  2. I don't believe this is duress. I don't think there was a threat made. Chang gave Moser an option other than going to court. Moser is dumb for claiming duress

  3. I don't think that its duress because there was no threat made. It was an option, not a threat

  4. i don't think duress took place. there was no ridiculous threat made all tho the amount was pretty outlandish. she gave her an option to not go to court and have her insurance raised.

  5. I don't believe there was duress. Moser did not have Motor Liability Insurance. She had negligently collided with Chang's car. If Chang would sue for a different reason, i think there would be duress but since he did not there was not duress

  6. No I don't believe that this is duress. He gave her an ultimatum to pay him upfront or go to court. She chose pay. She should do whats favorable to her.
