Contracts: Capacity and Consent
A hypothetical case study of a legal issue pertaining to a lease contract.
675 words (approx. 2.7 pages) | 0 sources | 2006 United States


Paper Summary:

This paper is an answer to a legal hypothetical presented whereby Marshall would be obligated to Fletcher for the rent money he agreed to pay when he entered into a contract at the age of 17, but took steps after he reached the age of 18 to ratify the contract.

From the Paper:

"In the present case, Marshall entered into the contract to lease an apartment and pay one half of the rent with Fletcher paying the other half. "A contract is a legally binding agreement enforceable in a court of law"(Bennett, p. 1). For a contract to be valid it must meet certain requirements. The basic requirements are that there is a meeting of the minds, acceptance, and consideration. These three are present in this case. There is no suggestion in the hypothetical that Marshall did not know what the lease entailed, the length of time of the lease, or what portion of the lease he would be responsible for. "
