Question

On Monday, three days before his eighteenth birthday, Dewey signs a contract to purchase a car. The car dealer agrees the car can be picked up on Friday. Dewey does not appear to take possession of the car and does not make any payments. When the car dealer sues to enforce the terms of the contract, the car dealer will:

a.Win, because Dewey failed to make payments under the contract.
b.Win, because Dewey failed to cancel the contract in an affirmative manner.
c.Lose, because it has not lived up to its obligation to deliver the car to Dewey.
d.Lose. because Dewey has disaffirmed the contract

Answer 1

d.

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the information provided it can be said that when the car dealer sues to enforce the terms of the contract, the car dealer will lose. Mainly because Dewey has dis-affirmed the contract. This refers to the power that a minor has to deny responsibility for a contract. Therefore since Dewey was a minor at the time of signing the contract he can easily dis-affirm thee contract.
