Would contract law govern an agreement between a manager and his friend in which the manager agreed to leave the door to the warehouse unlocked so that his friend could steal company property? Why or why not?
Homework Answers
The agreement will not be considered as a contract, hence it will not be governed by the contract law. If the act is done, it will be governed by the criminal law.
The action mentioned above is a contract defenses and is not enforceable. The courts will not help a person who made an agreement for an illegal act. The law will consider as if the contract never existed.
It is a prerequisite for the subject of the promise and the consideration to be legal, for it to get qualified as a contract.
