Discussion 3

Mistakes happen, often times with little to no consequences. Unfortunately in the world of contract law, mistakes can be rather costly. Depending on the type of mistake, the contract may or may not be voided.

For your initial post this week, discuss whether or not contracts should be voided based on mistakes. Provide an example of a mistake in contracting that would allow for it to be voided. Feel free to get creative with your example.
