15) Use these fact situations to answer the related questions that follow.
Fact Situation 1:
John is the 20-year-old nephew of Mary, who is 80 years of age and unable to get around
or do things herself. Mary owns two properties in Toronto: 121 Thornton Lane and 122

9-6
Thornton Lane. Mary, who lives at 121 Thornton Lane, orally agrees with John that if he
is good to her and does whatever services for her that she asks him to do from time to
time during the rest of her life, she will leave John 121 Thornton Lane. John does not live
with Mary, but does a number of things that Mary asks him to do, including taking her on
trips, doing some errands, and also doing some odd jobs for both properties over the
course of a year, after which Mary dies without leaving John 121 Thornton Lane. Now
John sues her estate to get the house.
Fact Situation 2:
In 1921 Gus met Dick, and in the spring of 1922 Gus went to work for Dick as a farm
labourer. For the first two years after that, Gus was paid $50.00 a month, plus room and
board and meals. In 1924, Dick was in an accident and became disabled. Although Dick
could not pay Gus wages, he promised to leave Gus his farm after he died if Gus stayed
and worked the land. From 1924 on, Gus, who often considered leaving Dick's farm and
had ample opportunity to do so, stayed and worked the farm on Dick's continued promise
that if he stayed and worked the farm, the farm would be his after Dick's death. During
this time Gus planted the fields, decided on what crops to plant, did repairs to Dick's
house, and on Dick's behalf purchased livestock and then took care of it. Dick died in
1930 before he had a chance to make a will leaving Gus the land.
In Fact Situation 1, if John sues Mary's estate to get the house,

a. John's acts of taking Mary on trips and doing the errands and odd jobs on the properties
are immaterial because the contract was one of services for an indefinite period, so he
will succeed.
b. the agreement between John and Mary is one for a period of a year and John cannot
succeed.
c. John's acts of taking Mary on trips and doing the errands and odd jobs on the properties
come within the doctrine of part performance and John will succeed.
d. the agreement between John and Mary contains all the essential terms necessary to
create a binding agreement that does not come within the Statute of Frauds, so John will
succeed.
e. John's acts of taking Mary on trips and doing the errands and odd jobs on the properties
do not come within the doctrine of part performance and John will not succeed.

Answer:
The Statute of Frauds renders unenforceable certain types of contracts where such
contracts are not in writing. One of these contracts are contracts concerning interests in
land. Under the doctrine of part performance, however, if a plaintiff can show to the
satisfaction of a court that he or she has partly performed an oral contract relating to an
interest in land, in reliance on the contract, the court will accept the performance as
evidence of the contract in place of the written contract.

51) Explain how an oral contract that is unenforceable because it is not in writing, may
still affect the relationship between the parties.
Answer:
The Statute of Frauds renders unenforceable certain oral contracts that are not in writing.
Although an oral contract may be unenforceable because it is not in writing, it can still
affect the relationship between the parties in various ways. For example, both parties to
the contract may choose to perform their obligations under the contract. Second, if a party
accepts goods and services under a contract that is unenforceable because of the Statute
of Frauds, that party cannot retain the benefit that he or she has received without paying
for it. Thirdly, although a contract may be unenforceable, the parties may enter into a
written memorandum after the contract is formed which will satisfy the requirement of
the Statute of Frauds. Finally, although a oral contract may not be enforceable under the
statute of frauds, it may have the effect of dissolving an earlier written contract which is
still binding on the parties.

52) Regardless of the legal requirements, what are the practical advantages of a written
record?
Answer:
There are a significant number of advantages with a written record. First, the written
record provides a reliable record of the terms upon which agreement was reached.
Frequently, parties may disagree as to what was said; a written record reduces the
possibility that there will be disagreement about the nature of the terms of the agreement.
As well, human memory is not infallible. Persons who reach agreement may tend to
forget the terms of the agreement if they rely on their memories. It is better to trust a
written record than human memory. Finally, the existence of a written record assists in
the enforcement of a contract.

54) A and B are negotiating a contract under which, if it is concluded, B will purchase
A's land. A sends a fax to B stating, "I will sell you the 40 acres of land that I own at
1234 Concession Road 2, County of Simcoe for $100 000.00.” B faxes the following
response: "I can't pay $100 000.00. Will you take $92 000.00?” On receiving this fax, A
responds by saying, “$92 000.00 is the lowest that I can go." After thinking about it for a
time, B faxes back to A saying, "I'll pay the $92 000.00, but I want you to throw in your
harvester machine." A then responds by fax, which says, "Done. But maybe we should
put the agreement in writing." No further response is forthcoming from B and the

9-21
agreement is never put into a formal written document. A few days later, B bumps into A
and says, “I'm getting the money to pay you for your farm.” To which A replies, "Oh, I
changed my mind, and since we don't have written contract, the deal is off." In this
situation, what will both A and B argue, and who is most likely to succeed?
Answer:
A will argue that there is no formal written contract that contains all of the essential
elements necessary for a contract. Any oral contract, even with the essential elements, is
unenforceable by reason of the Statute of Frauds. On the other hand, B will present all of
the faxes that went back and forth between A and himself and will argue that, taken
together, they constitute a written contract which itself contains all of the essential
elements: the parties, A and B; the property, 1234 Concession Road 2, County of Simcoe
and the harvester, and the price $92 000.00. In this case, B will succeed because the court
will rely on the written faxes to evidence the contract.
