Paper Summary:

This paper presents a general definition of the Statute of Frauds and describes what it covers, its history, examples of how it has been applied, and how it has evolved over time.

From the Paper:

"The Statute of Frauds is a catch-all phrase that sums up the idea that some contracts must be in writing in order to be enforceable. Although the technical requirements of the Statute of Frauds vary by jurisdiction, the basic premise of the Statute of Frauds is that certain contracts are unenforceable unless they are in writing. Among those contracts are: those for the sale of goods worth more than $500; promises by an executor to answer for the debt of a decedent; suretyship contracts; promises made in consideration of marriage; contracts for the sale of land; and certain landlord-tenant contracts."
