BUSAD 120 Lecture Notes - Lecture 15: Employment Contract
Document Summary
Contract that is null ccq 1422: deemed never to have existed, retroactively dissolved as of the date that the contract was originally formed: give back what you received and get back what you paid. Cancelation: contract is valid up to a specific date after which the contract is no longer valid: contract was valid for the past, but ceases to be valid as and from the date of cancelation. Contract by mutual agreement: both parties have some power to negotiate and agree upon mutually acceptable terms (if not adhesion contract=contract by mutual agreement) Consumer contract: a human being buys something for a personal/domestic use from a professional seller: the professional seller is considered the stronger party. Interpretation: courts recognize that the weaker party may have signed the contract without having any power to modify the terms and conditions. Just because you signed a contract does not necessarily mean that you really do agree to it.
