  • Contract Law, Lesson 3
    lesson three: capacity to contract and unenforceable contracts handout capacity to contract To enter into a contract, an individual must have the capacity to do so. Generally speaking, everyone is capable of entering into a contract, although exceptions are made for minors, those with mental disabilities and intoxicated persons. This is because contracts must be performed “consensus ad diem”, meaning there must be mutual understanding of the terms of a contract. With the above exceptions, the individuals may be entering into a contract while not having the capacity to do so. Therefore, consensus ad diem may not exist. unenforceable contracts While there is no automatic right to cancel a contract, not every contract can be enforced by law. Contracts may be voided in the following situations: Misrepresentation Knowingly making misrepresentations or false statements to persuade a consumer to enter into a contract can make that contract voidable. This means that either party can cancel the contract if they want to. But the misrepresentation must be about a major part of the contract, not some minor detail, and the contract must be cancelled within a reasonable amount of time. For example: Pat is thinking of buying a duplex from Dale LIFE INSURANCE – EVERYBODY and renting it out. Dale tells Pat that the rent IS ACCEPTED BUT iS is enough to cover the mortgage payments. EVERYBODY PAID? In fact, Dale says, the rents last year totaled $24,000. (Dale’s representation to Pat) A frequent claim in life insurance Pat buys the duplex and then finds out advertisements is that no applicants will be that the suites were vacant most of last turned down.

  • Was Lee Harvey Oswald in North Dakota
    Chapter 28 Lee Harvey Oswald; North Dakota and Beyond John Delane Williams and Gary Severson North Dakota would become part of the JFK assassination story subsequent to a letter, sent by Mrs. Alma Cole to President Johnson. That letter [1] follows (the original was in Mrs. Cole’s handwriting): Dec 11, 1963 President Lyndon B. Johnson Dear Sir, I don’t know how to write to you, and I don’t know if I should or shouldn’t. My son knew Lee Harvey Oswald when he was at Stanley, North Dakota. I do not recall what year, but it was before Lee Harvey Oswald enlisted in the Marines. The boy read communist books then. He told my son He had a calling to kill the President. My son told me, he asked him. How he would know which one? Lee Harvey Oswald said he didn’t know, but the time and place would be laid before him. There are others at Stanley who knew Oswald. If you would check, I believe what I have wrote will check out. Another woman who knew of Oswald and his mother, was Mrs. Francis Jelesed she had the Stanley Café, (she’s Mrs. Harry Merbach now.) Her son, I believe, knew Lee Harvey Oswald better than mine did. Francis and I just thought Oswald a bragging boy. Now we know different. We told our sons to have nothing to do with him (I’m sorry, I don’t remember the year.) This letter is wrote to you in hopes of helping, if it does all I want is A Thank You.
