Document Summary
Answers to problems chapter 11: anita and barry were negotiating, and anita"s attorney prepared a long and carefully drawn contract, which was given to. Five days later and prior to its execution, barry"s eyes became so infected that it was impossible for him to read. Ten days thereafter and during the continuance of the illness, anita called upon barry and urged him to sign the contract, telling him that time was running out. Barry signed the contract despite the fact he was unable t o read it. In a subsequent action by anita, barry claimed that the contract was not binding upon him because it was impossible for him to read and he did not know what it contained prior to his signing it. Yes, decision in favor of anita and against barry. Barry"s defense that the contract was not binding upon him because he had not and could not have read it prior to signing it is not valid.
