A Verbal Contract Concerning the Sale of Land to Jack

question 39

True/False

A verbal contract concerning the sale of land to Jack by Jill will not be enforceable by either one of them unless it can be shown that the one who wishes to enforce it dealt with the land as if there was such a contract and no other interpretation could be put on their actions; that the non-enforcement would perpetrate a fraud and a hardship on the one who wishes to enforce it; and there is clear verbal evidence, such as witnesses to the transaction, to establish that there was such a valid verbal contract between them.
