It is undisputed that the automobile is stolen and title is void. Appellants couldn’t legally transfer title and therefore the subsequent sale is a breach of warranty of good title.

RULES OF LAW: A person who has goods of another cannot pass title whether such other knew or did not know that goods were stolen. A person with voidable title has power to transfer a good to a good faith purchaser for value.

In addition, the investors and creditors of Phar-Mor did not have a written agreement with the auditor, Coopers & Lybrand’s, defining Coopers & Lybrand’s duty.
