Answer 2

In such a case the Y can sue party X for misinformation and Defamation.

• Here the party Y can sue party X for misinformation and defamation because party Y was misled and given wrong information which lead to the wastage of their time and resources.

• However in this case the party Y should reach out to party X and ask them for the reason for not conducting the auction.
• In case of a genuine emergency or a problem, it is better to reach a mutually agreeable decision rather than involve the court in this matter.
