Aunt Annette and Nephew Ned both live in Louisiana where the drinking age is 18. Annette is concerned that Ned, who is 19, will get into trouble if he drinks while he is still a young man. She offers to pay him $1,000 if he will promise not to drink until he is 21. Ned agrees, and abstains from drinking until his 21st birthday, when he downs 11 "tequila fanny-bangers" at a local bar. After he sobers up, can he force his aunt to pay him the $1,000

Answer:

Not enforceable

Step-by-step explanation:

Because they didn't sign a legal agreement

His aunt can wish to pay him willing or not, he can't force her

And where the drinking age is 18, he can't call the police or any law enforcement to help him.
