Contract Law Misrepresentation Insights
Summary
A representation of future intention can be actionable if made dishonestly. Restraint of trade contracts must be reasonable. Contracts void for illegality contradict public policy or statutes. Bank manager-client is not a special relationship for undue influence. Actionable misrepresentation requires inducement, not timing. Rescission doesnt affect bona fide third-party purchasers. Contracts are void for common mistakes if the subject matter didnt exist. Beneficial contracts for minors often involve employment or training.Full Conversation
