BU231 Chapter 5: Chapter 5
Document Summary
Offer a tentative promise made by one party, subject to a condition or containing a request to the other party. Offeree the person to whom the offer is made. Standard form contract an offer presented in a printed document or notice, the terms of which cannot be changed by the offeree, but must be accepted as-is or rejected. If there are terms of notice that are not known by people they will not be legally bound by it if a court feels that the general person wouldn"t know about it. It depends on whether the offerer had done what was reasonably necessary in the circumstances to bring the term to the notice of its offeree. In regards to unusual or unexpected terms, they must be brought directly to the attention of the offeree if they are to be found with adequate notice in court.
