Explain the differences between and similarities of the categories used to classify contracts by their enforceability: valid, unenforceable, voidable, and void.

What will be an ideal response?


Students' responses may vary. The answer should be structured along with these definitions: A valid contract is one that meets all the legal requirements for a contract. An unenforceable contract is one that meets the basic elements required for a contract but will not be enforced due to some other legal rule. A voidable contract is one that may be canceled by one or both of the parties. The void contract lacks one or more of the basic requirements for a contract.
