Does signing a contract while drinking alcohol and partying automatically make the contract void? Why or Why not? Explain, using information from your text.

Courts are usually not very sympathetic to people who claim they were intoxicated when they signed a contract. Generally a court will only allow the contract to be voided if the other party to the contract knew about the intoxication and took advantage of the person, or if the person was somehow involuntarily drugged.
