FAQ

A promissory condition is a promise whose performance either suspends a duty of immediate performance until it occurs or gives rise to such duty upon its occurrence. A, non- promissory condition creates a privilege in the case of a condition precedent and a power in the case of a condition subsequent.

Grody is the promisor because he promised to send Mongo to dance at the party. Misty is the promisee because she is on the benefiting end of the promise. That is the simplified explanation of how two parties become obligated to one another.

Promise- Section 2(b) of the Indian Contract Act, 1872 defines a promise as: 'when the person to whom the proposal is made signifies his assent thereto, the proposal becomes an accepted proposal. A proposal when accepted, becomes a promise'.

A promise is a claim of intent to act in a certain manner or to refrain from acting in a certain manner. A promise is made by a promisor to the promisee. The one who claims intent is the promisor, and the one to whom the claim of intent is made is the promisee.

Someone must make a promise. Someone else must genuinely and justifiably rely on the promise. The actions that are taken in reliance on the promise must be reasonably foreseeable to the person who makes the promise. Injustice will occur if the promise isn't enforced.

Thus, a promise may be enforceable to the extent that the promisee has incurred substantial costs, or conferred benefits, in reasonable reliance on the promise.

In Contract as Promise: A Theory oJ Contractual Obligation, Charles Fried argues that the moral basis of contract law is lodged in the promise principle, "that principle by which persons may impose on themselves obli- gations where none existed before" (p. 1).

Contracts. Chapter 301. Contracts—Formation, Interpretation, and Enforceability. WPI 301.02 Promise Defined. A promise is an expression that justifies the person to whom it is made in reasonably believing that a commitment has been made that something specific will happen or not happen in the future.

Suppose one party, the offeror, makes a statement or a promise that causes another party to rely on that statement in such a way that they are financially injured by that reliance. In that case, a court will enforce the statement or promise as if it were a valid contract.
