Examine Society’s Interest In Allowing Minors to Void Contracts
Last week you analyzed the legal merits of Lee v. Friendspot. As you may recall, your research established that the contract between Jenny Lee and Friendspot was voidable because Jenny Lee was a minor. *I will attach last week assignment*
Teachers Feedback:
Great job with your research, I do think that having Jenny void the contract because she is a minor is the simplest way to resolve this situation. And I think you could have done a better job of explaining what happens/how her being a minor affects the legality of the contract and charges. Statute citations should be in regular text and not italicized: https://www.law.cornell.edu/citation/3-300
In communications with a client you want to be assertive and present a plan of attack, rather than offering options. As a general rule the client doesn’t have the training/education to determine the applicability of statutes/case law and they are looking to you to tell them how to best resolve the legal issue.
And you don’t generally use headings in clients letters, you want them to be conversational and easy to follow and understand.
Excellent effort Mercedes, keep up the great work!!
Assignments:
This week please draft a business law article discussing Lee v. Friendspot and the public policy behind requiring a minimum age to contract. Examine the societal, ethical and economic impact of: 1) the minimum age requirement; 2) removing the age requirement; and, 3) extending the age from eighteen to twenty-one. Furthermore, discuss the public policy supporting exempting certain contracts from the general rule that minor may void a contract.
References: Please use, at a minimum, 5 legal resources to facilitate and support the analysis and conclusions made in your legal article. Must use BLUEBOOK format and citations.
