Harrison, a men’s clothing retailer located in Westport, Connecticut,
ordered merchandise from Ninth Street East, Ltd., a Los Angeles–
based clothing manufacturer. Ninth Street delivered the merchandise
to Denver-Chicago Trucking Company (Denver) in Los Angeles and
then sent four invoices to Harrison that bore the notation “F.O.B. Los
Angeles.” Denver subsequently transferred the merchandise to a
connecting carrier, Old Colony Transportation Company, for final
delivery to Harrison’s Westport store. When Old Colony tried to
deliver the merchandise, Harrison’s wife asked the truck driver to
deliver the boxes inside the store, but the driver refused. The dispute
remained unresolved, and the truck departed with Old Colony still in
possession of the goods. By letter, Harrison then notified Ninth Street
of the nondelivery, but Ninth Street was unable to locate the
shipment. Ninth Street then sought to recover the contract purchase
price from Harrison. Harrison refused, contending that risk of loss
remained with Ninth Street because of its refusal to deliver the
merchandise to Harrison’s place of business.
