272: Listen and Learn -- The Statute of Frauds (Contract Law)

The Law School Toolbox Podcast: Tools for Law Students from 1L to the Bar Exam, and Beyond

Welcome back to the Law School Toolbox podcast! Today, in an episode from our "Listen and Learn" series, we take a look at the Statute of Frauds, or the types of situations that are susceptible to fraud and therefore require a written and signed contract.

In this episode we discuss:

  • The situations that courts have decided are particularly open to fraud
  • What elements are needed for contract formation?
  • The rules and exceptions to the Statute of Frauds
  • Analyzing two Contracts questions, from the July 2011 and July 2019 California bar exams
  • How you should structure your exam answer when the question involves the Statute of Frauds
