Explanation:

In this scenario, Velma contracts with Gordon, who agrees to build a stone retaining wall and French drain on her property. The wall and drain are necessary to prevent erosion of her land, which is falling into the creek on her property at a rapid rate. If Gordon breaches the contract by failing to get to work, Velma is under a legal obligation to mitigate her damages.

Velma has the legal rights and responsibilities to make sure she does anything humanly possible to reduce or lessen the damages to her property.

She could sue Gordon for not getting to work or failing to start work thereby causing more damage.
