Do You Think The Agreement Is A Valid Contract?

Most time, acceptance would be made in clear and loud matters, such as saying “Yes, I accept.” But silence would constitute acceptance of an offer where the common-law and statutory law allows. Supreme Court of Nebraska has confirmed in Joseph Heiting and Sons v. Jacks Bean Co that acceptance may be established by silence or inaction of an offeree and acceptance occurs when the buyer/offeree “does any act inconsistent with the seller/offeror’s ownership...” Neb. U.C.C. section 2-606(1)(c). In Joseph Heiting and Sons v. Jacks Bean Co, 463 N.W.2d 817, 236 Neb. 765 (Neb.,1990), Heiting (Plaintiff) offered to sell its beans at the posted price on September 30, 1987, but was never informed of acceptance or rejection of the offer. Heiting and Jacks

Tech Ltd hired extra electricians and worked longer hours to complete the installation as agreed on 20th December.

Firstly, we have to distinguish whether Jack makes an invitation to tender or an invitation to treat. According to Harvela Investments Ltd v. Royal Trust Co of Canada (CI) Ltd (1986), the usual analysis is that ‘an invitation to tender for a particular project is simply an invitation to treat. ' However, in the case of Harvela Investments Ltd, the invitation to tender is treated as an offer implicating legal obligations. I believe that Jack was making an invitation to treat rather than an invitation to tender, constituting an offer, for several reasons; firstly, the terms of the invitation are vague, with no specification of time for which acceptance of the ‘most competitive tender ' will remain open till; secondly, I infer that the lack

There 's an old Hollywood tale that the legendary Louis B. Mayer once said "“A verbal agreement ain 't worth the paper it’s printed on.” This may not be totally true but as recent case demonstrates regarding the rightful ownership of an application known as Snapchat, the words of Mr. Mayer reinforce a bit of vintage wisdom that contracting parties should always put their agreements in writing. Louie Mayer wasn 't entirely correct as a verbal agreement in lieu of a written contract is still generally binding and, no matter how brief, is still a contract. In fact, most binding legal agreements can be oral agreements.

Every contract is based on the concept of agreement. A contract is defined as a legal agreement consisting of exchange of promises which is recognized by law as giving rise to enforceable rights and obligations. The test of agreement is used to ensure whether or not there is a contract between the parties. Whereas the objective test ensures certainty, the same cannot be said about the subjective test of agreement. The objective test of agreement is when the court decides whether there is contract based on the outward appearance of what constitutes the contract. However the subjective test of agreement involves trying to establish whether there was a “meeting of minds” when the contract was made. That is, to try to figure out the mental state of mind of the parties involved during the time the contract was made.

IN CONSIDERATION of the mutual promises exchanged by the parties as set forth herein, the parties intend to be legally bound and hereby agree as follows:

Both web contracts and customary contracts must be dealt with similarly, on the grounds that a definitive result that achieves the client is the "item" either obtained through online or through direct showcasing. Subsequently, the web contracts must be dealt with similarly as conventional contracts with the simple reasonable dialect of terms and conditions.

In general, the agreement must be reasonable in scope and offer you something in return, like a bonus or stock options, in order to be legally enforceable.

This legal contract represents a legal binding between all signatures. This agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United States of

SnapChat is a photo messaging application (App) developed by Evan Spiegel and Robert Murphy. Both of the founders were Stanford students. The application was initially developed for a project at Stanford. This app allows the user to share photos, videos, add text/drawings, and send them to a controlled list of recipients. Users have the benefit of setting a time limit for how long the recipient can view their snaps (Ranging from 1 - 10 seconds), after which the photos/videos will be hidden from the recipient’s device and deleted from SnapChat’s servers. The smalltime college project developed into a huge social media success due to its innovative feature (Magid, 2013).

With no option to click on “I have no idea what this says” on clickwrap agreements, users only have the option to click on “I agree” after scrolling through a multitude of boring contract clauses. Daily Conversions, a blog dedicated to giving marketing advice, takes a funny and masterful approach in delivering their own terms of service.

“A contract is a legally enforceable promise.” Lau, T., & Johnson, L. (2013). When people buy cell phones these days, they understand that they will be entering a legally enforceable promise.

The purpose of this discussion essay is to prove that there was a breach of contract, that there was tort liability involved, that there was a guest innkeeper relationship, a possible landlord tenant relationship and bailment involved.

Contractual agreements are supposed to be consensual, and freely entered into by the parties involved. Therefore, ‘before a court enforces a relationship as a contract, the courts must have a reasonably certain basis in fact to justify binding the parties to each other.’ (St. John’s Law Scholarship Repository, no date). Resolution of whether a contract was intended to be legally binding is not determined by what the parties themselves thought or intended. Rather, a more objective stance is taken by the courts. This is known as the objective theory of contract, and essentially enables ‘the courts to look at external evidence (what the parties said and did at the time)’ (Poole, 2006, p. 34), as to objectively indicate the parties’ intentions

Terms and conditions are something we encounter daily, yet we do not give a second thought. They are a legally binding document that tells us what rules we must follow if we want to use a service. The terms and conditions are used to protect the provider of that service from someone misusing the service. Most of the time they are reasonable but in some occasions they include conditions we would never agree to. For example, we give a service like Facebook the right to store information about our personal lives when we use it but we also unknowingly give Facebook the right to use the information for other purposes. Some people who use Facebook may not know that their personal information is actually being sold to other companies and used for
