Abstract
It is a melancholy object to those, who labor in the great area of contract law involving donative promises, or travel in its academic realm, when they see tribunals, courts and other dispute resolution venues, crowded with petitioners of every stripe, followed by clerks with voluminous pleadings, importuning said authorities for aid. These individuals, instead of being able to work at more venerable elements of their calling, are forced to spend time pleading with courts for sustenance for their floundering claims, that as they mature, are either granted entry in to the protective realm of contract law by contorted analysis or are left to founder by the wayside, confined to the unenforceable arena of gift.
