Listen Later

Welcome back to the Bar Exam Toolbox podcast! Today's episode is part of our "Listen and Learn" series, where we review a substantive area of the law and apply it to fact patterns. This time, we're focusing on the Statute of Frauds in Contract Law.

In this episode, we discuss:

  • The types of situations that courts have decided are particularly open to fraud
  • The elements of contract formation
  • What are 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 essay answer when discussing the Statute of Frauds
