| | Consideration - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Consideration is a central concept in the common law of contracts. | | | Under classical contract theory, consideration is required for a contract to be enforceable. | | | Occasionally the court may refer to "adequate" or "valuable" consideration, but in reality the court is not examining the adequacy of consideration, but whether or not it was bargained for. |

| | [No title] |
| | Consideration must be of value (at least to the parties), and is exchanged for the performance or promise of performance by the other party (such performance itself is consideration). | | | 2) a vital element in the law of contracts, consideration is a benefit which must be bargained for between the parties, and is the essential reason for a party entering into a contract. | | | Not doing an act (forbearance) can be consideration, such as "I will pay you $1,000 not to build a road next to my fence." Sometimes consideration is "nominal," meaning it is stated for form only, such as "$10 as consideration for conveyance of title," which is used to hide the true amount being paid. |

| | "Consideration" Defined |
| | The consideration must be some benefit to the party by whom the promise is made, or to a third person at his instance; or some detriment sustained at the instance of the party promising by the party in whose favor the promise is made. | | | A consideration of some sort or other is so absolutely necessary to the forming a good contract that a nudum pactum, or an agreement to do or to pay any thing on one side without any compensation to the other, is totally void in law, and a man cannot be compelled to perform it. | | | But it is to be observed that in such cases there must have been a good or valuable consideration; for example, every one is under a moral obligation to relieve a person in distress, a promise to do so, however, is not binding in law. |

| | Minnesota Contract Law |
| | All parties in an agreement must give consideration in order to create a contract, but courts typically do not look at the adequacy of consideration unless there is evidence of some type of wrongdoing by the party benefiting most from the contract. | | | Consideration can be a promise to do something there is no legal obligation to do, or a promise to not do something there is a legal right to do. | | | Although two persons may exchange an offer, acceptance, and consideration, if the subject matter of the contract is illegal, an enforceable contract does not exist. |

| | Q&A Failure of Consideration |
| | Because the generic term "failure of consideration" to describe a breach of contract is potentially misleading its use for that purpose should be discouraged. | | | The term "failure of consideration" covers every case where a contractual obligation is not performed irrespective of the fault of the breaching party. | | | When there is a "lack of consideration," no contract is ever formed, but when there is "failure of consideration," a contract, valid when formed, becomes unenforceable because performance bargained for has not been rendered. |

| | Consideration |
| | Consideration may consist of an act, i.e., doing that which one is not legally obligated to do, or a forbearance, i.e., refraining from conduct which one is privileged to engage in. | | | Consideration is what distinguishes enforceable promises from those promises which are gratuitous. | | | A promise which is conditioned upon the whim of the promisor is not consideration. |

| | A Dictionary of Law: consideration @ HighBeam Research |
| | Consideration is essential to the validity of any contract other than one made by deed. | | | Without consideration an agreement not made by deed is not binding; it is a nudum pactum (naked agreement), governed by the maxim ex nudo pacto non oritur actio (a right of action does not arise out of a naked agreement). | | | An act, forbearance, or promise by one party to a contract that constitutes the price for which he buys the promise of the other. |

| | Payne argued there was no consideration, the trial court bought his argument and refused to compel him to arbitrate. | | | However, some courts use the doctrine of consideration as a method for refusing to enforce agreements that they don't like (that is, they don't like for some other reason). | | | According to the trial court, Kinko's gave no consideration in exchange for Payne's promise to arbitrate. |

| | Only when norms allow the use of consideration should we conclude that parties truly desire the option to have their promises legally enforced. | | | Moreover, the contexts in which norms block the use of consideration are precisely the circumstances where creating a legally binding option would be most likely to harm both promisors and promisees. | | | The lack of a theoretical solution to this puzzle has plagued the application of the consideration doctrine in courts of law. |

| | Stowell/In Tender Consideration. Introduction |
| | The phrase "in tender consideration" that begins the formulaic conclusion to a bill of complaint in an equity case captures the paternalistic attitude of courts toward women and children. | | | By judicial decree the divorced adulteress became once again a wife (widow) with her dower rights restored. | | | Male legislators, judges, and jurors considered women and children inferior, dependent, and in need of protection, and they created and maintained a legal edifice that reflected these cultural attitudes. |
