Simple English definitions for legal terms

Unenforceable

Read a random definition: National Disaster Medical System

A quick definition of Unenforceable:

Term: Unenforceable

Definition: An unenforceable contract is a valid agreement that a court will not enforce. This means that if the parties involved follow the terms of the contract, the court will not interfere. However, if the contract contains provisions that are not beneficial to any party or pose a significant risk to one party, the court will not award damages for breach of contract.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: An unenforceable contract is a valid agreement that cannot be enforced by a court. This means that if one party breaches the contract, the other party cannot seek damages or force the breaching party to perform their obligations. The court will not intervene because of reasons such as dubious benefit to any party, or extreme physical hazard to one party.

  • A contract between two parties where one party agrees to sell their kidney to the other party for $10,000 is unenforceable because it is illegal and against public policy.
  • A contract between an employer and employee that requires the employee to work more than 80 hours a week without overtime pay is unenforceable because it violates labor laws.

These examples illustrate the definition of an unenforceable contract because they both involve agreements that are not legally valid. In the first example, selling organs is illegal and against public policy, so the court will not enforce the contract. In the second example, the contract violates labor laws, so the court will not enforce it either.

I mean, idk how it's possible to end birth right citizenship without amending the constitution because to me the 14th amendment is pretty clear about it.
ross ulbricht tried to hire a hitman to kill 5 people
i am not that sympathetic to him

@KnowledgeableRitzyWasp: That might have been an FBI agent. It was most likely him and he was most likely doing it to retrieve stolen funds that corrupt FBI agents stole, but yeah moral gray area but me personally, cool with hitmen. It's not like it is uncommon to hire hitmen. I don't think the action itself is necessarily wrong but the intent behind it can be.

Like, Boeing whistblowers being killed by hitmen = wrong but a guy hiring hitmen to retrieve stolen funds = good to me.

@Dkk: Yeah, for sure. My guess is it'll go to SCOTUS and it'll be 8-1 or 7-2, saying that EO was unconstitutional.
