Heading: Misrepresentation as to What Constituted the Contract

Text: 82 In Question No. 4 the jury found that the defendant represented that the plaintiff's delivery of the February 6, 1969, acceptance letter together with its check for $25,000 would constitute an acceptance of the plaintiff's proposal of January 15, 1969, so as to constitute a valid binding contract between the parties. RCA raises for the first time on appeal numerous objections to this question. RCA's failure to object at trial is waiver of the right to protest on appeal. Safeway Stores v.
