This lesson covers our second
This lesson covers our second defense to formation: lack of capacity. Our first was the Statute of Frauds, which requires a claimant to have proof other than just testimony that a contract exists before the claimant gets her day in court.
A defendant lacks the capacity to contract if she is (1) a minor/infant, (2) mentally incompetent, or (3) intoxicated. If so, then she has the right to disaffirm the contract.
