MrAnd MrsA, Who Own a Farm, Noticed That Their Cows Were

Essay

Mr.and Mrs.A, who own a farm, noticed that their cows were getting sick.They called a veterinarian, who told them that the cows had ingested large amounts of an insecticide and that if they continued to do so, they would die.At this point, the As realized that, because their land lay downhill from B's and B was spraying the land with insecticide, B was causing the problem.The As went to see B and explained the problem, asking B to stop spraying or to find an alternative that will not hurt their cows.B became indignant and said, "I'm not going to stop spraying.I hate those stupid cows and I hope they do die." Eventually, despite the A's efforts, the cows died.The As buy new cows and sue B, asking for compensatory and punitive damages at law and a prohibitory injunction in equity.Should the damages be awarded? Can the As get an injunction in equity when they are also getting damages at law? Is an injunction proper? If not, why?
