Question: Jessie borrows $1,000 from Thomas and agree to repay the money in 30 days. Thomas assigns
the right to $1,000 to Douglas Finance Co. Douglas sues Jessie. Jessie argues that she had agreed to pay
the money only to Thomas and that when she and Thomas had entered into the transaction, there was no
intention to benefit Douglas Finance Co. Are these objections valid?
