Question 1

Question MCQ▾

PRINCIPLE: An agreement includes an offer and an acceptance accompanied by a consideration. Consideration must be lawful and carrying some value in the eyes of law. Void agreements are devoid of consideration.

FACTS: Bina told her husband to drop her to the office in the evening as she was being late to the office every day and spoiling her impression in front of her new boss. The husband of Bina agreed to do this the next morning. However, he got late for the office and couldn՚t drop her resulting into her being extremely late the same morning. This lowered her reputation in front of the new boss and she was finally removed from office. Bina sued her husband for not dropping her. Decide.
