nude contract

Read a random definition: Indian land

A quick definition of nude contract:

A nude contract is an agreement that is not legally enforceable because it does not have something called "consideration." Consideration is like a promise or something of value that each person gives to the other in the agreement. Without it, the agreement is like a bare promise that cannot be enforced in court. However, sometimes a nude contract can change or add to an existing obligation.

A more thorough explanation:

A nude contract, also known as a nudum pactum, is an informal agreement that is not legally enforceable because it lacks consideration. Consideration is something of value that is exchanged between parties in a contract. Without consideration, a contract is considered unenforceable.

In Roman law, a nudum pactum was an agreement that did not fall within the specific classes of agreements that could support a legal action. However, it could create an exception to or modification of an existing obligation.

For example, if John promises to give Jane $100 as a gift, but Jane does not promise anything in return, this would be considered a nude contract because there is no consideration exchanged. If John fails to give Jane the $100, she cannot legally enforce the agreement because it is not a valid contract.

Irvine is being snobby and wont start any review until end of Nov.
Yeah, it’s tough. I’m distracting myself by playing good video games after work :)
im distracting myself by schizo-scrolling r/lawschoolamissions and every conceivable data point on this godforsaken website
it is not working
Haaa I naturally want to do that too. I’m trying to stop. They need a surgeon general’s warning on this site for perspective law students
i spend more time on here then anything else trying to rationalize that the waves from last year will match waves for this year (they won't) and that the stats of people with the same stats are indicative of my own (they aren't)
There aren't many people in my stat range so I pretty much know every result in my range after being on here for a few years
