ACCEPTANCE AND RECEIPT: AN ANOMALY IN THE STATUTE OF FRAUDS The enactment of the English Statute of Frauds' in 1677 has been attributed to the ineffectual trial procedure of that period.2 Both the practice of awarding new trials and the development of the rules of evidence were in a formative stage.3 At that time juries could reject the evidence heard and reach a verdict on their own privately secured information,4 and the parties to the action, who were not familiar with the facts, could not testify.5 Fraud and perjury were to be prevented primarily by removing from juries any determination of liability in certain cases unless the statutory formalities were met.6 Furthermore, the turbulent times following the Civil War, the Commonwealth, and the Restoration probably encouraged claims without any foundation. 7 The present day statutes of frauds which relate to the sale of goods are derived from Section seventeen of the English Statute of Frauds.

  • Offer and Acceptance
    CHAPTER TWO Offer and Acceptance [2:01] In determining whether parties have reached an agreement, the courts have adopted an intellectual framework that analyses transactions in terms of offer and acceptance. For an agreement to have been formed, therefore, it is necessary to show that one party to the transaction has made an offer, which has been accepted by the other party: the offer and acceptance together make up an agreement. The person who makes the offer is known as the offeror; the person to whom the offer is made is known as the offeree. [2:02] It is important not to be taken in by the deceptive familiarity of the words “offer” and “acceptance”. While these are straightforward English words, in the contract context they have acquired additional layers of meaning. The essential elements of a valid offer are: (a) The terms of the offer must be clear, certain and complete; (b) The offer must be communicated to the other party; (c) The offer must be made by written or spoken words, or be inferred by the conduct of the parties; (d) The offer must be intended as such before a contract can arise. What is an offer? Clark gives this definition: “An offer may be defined as a clear and unambiguous statement of the terms upon which the offeror is willing to contract, should the person or persons to whom the offer is directed decide to accept.”1 An further definition arises in the case of Storer v Manchester City Council [1974] 2 All ER 824, the court stated that an offer “…empowers persons to whom it is addressed to create contract by their acceptance.” [2:03] The first point to be noted from Clark’s succinct definition is that an offer must be something that will be converted into a contract once accepted.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Duquesne Law Review by an authorized editor of Duquesne Scholarship Collection. Commercial Impracticability-An Overview Robert Sommer* As shortages become more severe and prices continue to climb, both suppliers and purchasers are confronted with increasingly more burdensome performance arising from long-term, set-price contracts. As performance becomes more burdensome, greater num- bers of beleaguered promisors will turn to § 2-615 of the Uniform Commercial Code in hopes of excusing nonperformance. The pur- pose of this article is to discuss the doctrine of impracticability as codified in § 2-615. This article will discuss the historical antece- dents of the doctrine of impracticability, the mechanics set up by the Code to regulate the operation of the doctrine, case law applying the Code mechanics and, finally, a few questions left unanswered by the Code. I. HISTORICAL BACKGROUND A. Overview The early common law excused performance of duties imposed by law on grounds of impossibility but refused to excuse performance of contractual obligations on the same grounds.' The theory was that a promise was absolute unless, and only to the extent, qualified by the promisor.

In 1930, Sections 76-123 were replaced by the Act of 1930.

  • A Comparative Study of Damages and Price Reduction Remedy for Breach of Sale Contract Under CISG, English and Iranian Laws
    Journal of Politics and Law; Vol. 9, No. 10; 2016 ISSN 1913-9047 E-ISSN 1913-9055 Published by Canadian Center of Science and Education A Comparative Study of Damages and Price Reduction Remedy for Breach of Sale Contract under CISG, English and Iranian Laws Ali Zareshahi1 1 Department of Law, Maybod Branch, Islamic Azad University, Maybod, Iran Correspondence: Ali Zareshahi, Department of Law, Maybod Branch, Islamic Azad University, Maybod, Iran. E-mail: [email protected] Received: February 8, 2016 Accepted: May 19, 2016 Online Published: November 30, 2016 doi:10.5539/jpl.v9n10p126 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5539/jpl.v9n10p126 Abstract In order to discourage people from breaching a contract and also to compensate the injured party for any losses, the law provides several remedies for breach of contract. One of these remedies is price reduction. In this study, we aims to compare the rules of Iranian law for price reduction remedy with those provided by Convention on Contracts for the International Sale Of Goods (CISG), and English law. English law has set detailed rules for rewarding damages for breach of contract , while Iranian law has generally-defined rules. The legislator has not determined not only the types of damage, but also the criteria for assessment of the damage. The remedies provided for price reduction in the CISG for breach of contract has been adapted to requirements of international trade, while In Iranian law there is no clear rules for this purpose, except three rules including a) Giving property to the buyer instead of money, (b) Compensation for loss of legitimate business involved to the buyer, and (c) Compensation for delayed payment to the buyer.

Plaintiffs 1 CASE 0:09-cv-03214-MJD-LIB Document 112 Filed 07/31/12 Page 2 of 32 allege that the failures are caused by a design defect in the vehicles’ torque converter, a component that acts as a bridge between the engine and the transmission. The torque converter connects to the transmission through a shaft with grooved ends called “splines.” If the torque converter fails, the splines may strip and the connection between the engine and the transmission is lost.

UNCONSCIONABILITY: THE APPROACH OF THE LOUISIANA CIVIL CODE Ronald L. Hersbergen* INTRODUCTION In 1975 Louisiana became the fiftieth state to enact the Uniform Commercial Code, but unlike its sister states, Louisiana omitted several UCC articles. As of 1983, UCC articles 2, 6, and 9 remain unadopted in Louisiana, and only article 6 remains under serious con- sideration for adoption by the Louisiana State Law Institute. For the present, articles 2 and 9 appear to be dead-letters in Louisiana, the apparent reason for inaction being a perception that the two articles are incompatible with Louisiana's underlying Civil Code principles.' By not enacting article 2 of the UCC, Louisiana remains, with Califor- nia, a jurisdiction without section 2-3022- not the most important sec- tion in the UCC, perhaps, but by far the most interesting one. The UCC section 2-302 comment advises that the section is, in essence, a grant of power to the courts to "police" contracts within the UCC's ambit and, in the court's discretion, to refuse to enforce Copyright 1983, by LOUISIANA LAW REVIEW.
