An investor who wanted to build a duplex asked the city zoning officer whether Lot A of Plan 16, known as 1 Street, was zoned for a single-family house or a duplex. The zoning officer was distracted by a news report on the radio and accidentally gave the investor a printed copy of the zoning for the wrong lot that said "duplex," although 1 Street was only zoned for single-family houses. After the investor began building a duplex, the city stopped him for building contrary to the zoning by-laws. He lost $50 000. On these facts (assuming all can be proven), which of the following is true?
◦ The cause of action most likely to be taken by the investor in this case is "deceit."
◦ A person can be sued only for actions that cause physical injury.
◦ The zoning officer can be sued even though the investor did not have a contract with him (i.e., he didn't pay for the information).
◦ The employer of the zoning officer could not be sued since the employer did no wrong.
◦ The zoning officer could not be sued successfully since he had no intention of hurting anyone; his error was an accident.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
