Plaintiff filed breach of contract action arising out of Defendant's error in publishing a notice with wrong hearing date for Plaintiff's application for a tax deed. Plaintiff alleged that error caused court to deny its tax deed application in a separate proceeding. Jury verdict for Defendant, finding that Plaintiff failed to perform all its obligations under the contract. Court properly denied Plaintiff's motion for directed verdict. Court properly gave Defendant's non-IPI instruction as to previous course of dealing, which created mutual obligations on the parties. (HALL and LAMPKIN, concurring.)
