Exercise 8

Goff-Hamel, an employee of Hastings Family Planning Services for 11 years, was asked by Obstetricians Gynecologists, P.C. (O G), to come work for them. She accepted and agreed to start work two months later. She gave notice at Hastings and got fitted for uniforms at O G. The day before she was to start, she was told not to come to work because one of the wives of an O G owner objected to her hiring. Goff-Hamel sued for promissory estoppel. Will she be successful? Why?
