A major first year course in law school, Contracts addresses basic legal problem areas such as:
- Was a contract formed?
- If so, does the party being sued have any contractual defenses?
- Do Uniform Commercial Code provisions supersede common law rules in this transaction?
- If liability is possible, what damages could the plaintiff recover?
Contracts essays are often a troublesome area, since they require a high degree of analysis. Typically, only six to nine of the numerous principles of law that you have learned in that course are pertinent to each hypothetical.
Each of the five Questions requires about one hour of analysis. The topics covered in each Question are described below.
Question 1: Offer/Definiteness of Material Terms; Assignments of Rights and Delegations of Duties; Contractual Modification; Statutes of Frauds/Uniform Commercial Code; Damages/Specific Performance and Cover.
Question 2: Invitation/Offer; Lack of Consideration/Illusoriness; Acceptance; Revocation of Offer; Statute of Frauds/Uniform Commercial Code/Must Be Performed Within One Year; Specific Performance; Offer/Definiteness as to Material Terms.
Question 3: Condition Precedent or Covenant; Material Breach; Personal Satisfaction Conditions; Damages/Plaintiff Entitled to be Made Whole; Substantial Performance; Accord and Satisfaction.
Question 4: Divisibility of Contract; Pre-Existing Duty Rule/Uniform Commercial Code; Uniform Commercial Code/"Good Faith" Modifications; Commercial Impracticability; Impossibility of Performance; Contractual Modification Where Obligor Has A Defense.
Question 5: Offer/Invitation; Statute of Frauds/Must Be Performed Within One Year; Promissory Estoppel; Excuse of Term or Condition; Lack of Consideration/Illusoriness; Damages/Aggrieved Party Entitled to Be Made Whole; Specific Performance.
