Commercial Law

Commercial Law assignment Question 1 In all, there is no binding contract formed enforcing Barbara to sell her Hilltown property to her husband Brian. c) My advice remains the same that there is no binding contract. Barbara’s offer on July 15th states: “I require verbal confirmation of your acceptance of this offer and will not accept anything less.”This renders the postal rule ineffective as it clearly stated the only effective form of acceptance is verbal confirmation by Brian. Thus, the offeree, Brian, would not have the right to choose acceptance by post in this scenario. His acceptance by post on July 16th is not legally effective and there is no evidence supporting his verbal confirmation as required by offeror, Barbara, so far. It is similar to case Tallerman and Co Pty Ltd v Nathan’s Merchandise Pty Ltd 1957. Again, such statement would be in favour of Barbara’s defence to the formation of any contract relating to her property sale.Commercial Law assignment Question 1 In all, there is no binding contract formed enforcing Barbara to sell her Hilltown property to her husband Brian. c) My advice remains the same that there is no binding contract.
