  • What Is Invitation to Treat?
    Cyber Law: © Dr. Qais Faryadi (F.S.T) www.dr-qais.com WHAT IS INVITATION TO TREAT? Invitation to treat or simply speaking information to bargain means a person inviting others to make an offer in order to create a binding contract. An example of invitation to treat is found in window shop displays and product advertisement. Invitation to treat comes from the Latin phrase invitatio ad offerendum and it means inviting an offer. In another words it is a special expression showing a person’s willingness to negotiate. When a shopkeeper makes an invitation to treat may not accept any offer on his goods as soon as it is accepted by the person who makes an offer. There is a difference between an offer and invitation to treat. When A accepts an offer from B a contract is complete. When B accepts an advertisement in a shop window, he is actually making an offer. It is up to the advertiser to accept or to reject the offer. The issue of invitation to treat was discussed in the case of Fisher v Bell 1 by the English Court of Appeal: “It is perfectly clear that according to the ordinary law of contract the display of an article with a price on it in a shop window is merely an invitation to treat. It is in no sense an offer for sale the acceptance of which constitutes a contract.” As such when a person displays a good on his shop or advertises something in his shop window merely bargaining an offer on it.

ALL LOSS: AN EXAMINATION OF BROAD FORM INSURANCE COVERAGES John P. Gorman* Introduction There is ample evidence in recent times to show that people who are interested in the protections offered by insurance are demanding broader forms of coverage upon fixed property, chiefly dwellings and the contents of dwellings. This is understandable enough, in view of the manifold perils to which all types of property are subjected in our times. With large urban con- centrations growing larger, and with the increasing number of people and sit- uations to which a person must expose himself just to live in a complex so- ciety, the need for extensive and comprehensive insurance coverage is evident.

The author thanks Western State for its generous research support, Western State colleague Professor Phil Merkel for his willingness to read this on two different occasions and his terrifically helpful com- ments, Whittier Law School Professor Patricia Leary for her insightful comments, and Professor Andrea Funk for help with early drafts. 1. Friedrich Kessler, in a pioneering work on contracts of adhesion, described the origins of standard form contracts: "The development of large scale enterprise with its mass production and mass distribution made a new type of contract inevitable-the standardized mass contract.

Professor Woodward offers an excellent explanation: Real assent to any given term in a form contract, including a merger clause, depends on how "rational" it is for the non-drafter (consumer and non-consumer alike) to attempt to understand what is in the form. This, in turn, is primarily a function of two observable facts: (1) the complexity and obscurity of the term in question and (2) the size of the un- derlying transaction.

Is an Advertisement an Offer? Why It Is, and Why It Matters JAY M. FEINMAN* AND STEPHEN R. BRILL** INTRODUCTION Courts and scholars uniformly recite the contract law rule familiar to all first-year students: An advertisement is not an offer. The courts and scholars are wrong. An advertisement is an offer. This Article explains why the purported rule is not the law, why the actual rule is that an advertisement is an offer, why that rule is correct, and what it tells us about contract law in particular and legal doctrine in general. I. THE TRADITIONAL RULE: AN ADVERTISEMENT Is NOT AN OFFER It is Hornbook law' that an advertisement is not an offer. Williston self-assuredly declared the rule to be an application of the dividing line between preliminary negotiations and offers: Frequently, negotiations for a contract are begun between parties by general expressions of willingness to enter into a bargain upon stated terms and yet the natural construction of the words and conduct of the parties is rather that they are inviting offers, or suggesting the terms of a possible future bargain than making positive offers.

  • 2000-2001,26 L.Ed.2D 387 (1970); Monroe, Id
    QUESTION 1 Denver Electronic Business, Inc. (Denver) designs and markets computer software. In order to expand its business, Denver borrowed funds from First Bank & Trust Company ( Bank). Denver and Bank signed a security agreement which granted Bank a security interest in all Denver's "equipment, inventory, computer software and designs, now owned or hereafter acquired or developed." Bank also had Denver sign a financing statement which identified the collateral in the same terms. Bank promptly filed the financing statement with the appropriate filing offices of the state and county in which Denver is headquartered and does business. A few months later, Denver replaced its employees' computers and sold the old computers to Computer Sales, Inc. (Computer Sales), a business which buys and sells used computer equipment. A few weeks later, Betty Buyer (Buyer)purchased one of these machines from Computer Sale's retail store. Denver used $1,000 of the proceeds from the sale of its old computers to buy 100 shares of stock in TransWord, Corp. Denver received a fully executed stock certificate for the 100 shares from TransWord in Denver's name. Unfortunately, Denver's business failed, forcing Denver to file bankruptcy. At the time of the filing, Denver's major asset was the successful word processing program it had developed, "Word-GO." QUESTIONS: 1. Discuss who has priority in Word-GO and the TransWord stock: Bank or the bankruptcy trustee. 2. Discuss whether Bank may recover the computer Buyer purchased from Computer Sales. QUESTION 2 Andy was looking for a building suitable for an auto repair business.
