| 单词 | gratuitous contract |
| 释义 | gratuitous contract gratuitous contract a CONTRACT where one side is not onerous. Properly speaking, this cannot cover a unilateral promise, for the nature of contract is that it is bilateral. Accordingly, a bilateral gratu- itous contract is one where there is merely acceptance of the agree- ment by one of the parties. In English law it would likely be treated as outside the law of contract because of the need for CONSIDERATION. In Scotland it is valid and can be proved by any evidence unless sub- ject to REQUIREMENTS OF WRITING. |
