Hi all,
I am doing a legal quiz. It is very difficult and I guess the answer is b,please help.
When Harry met Sally, he asked, "Why are you so upset?" Sally replied that she needed to mow the lawn by the next morning, but had lots of schoolwork to complete. Harry slipped into Sally's lawn that afternoon when she had gone to school, and mowed the lawn for her. When Sally returned, she was very happy, and promised to pay Harry $50 for his kind act. Which of the following statements is false?
a)Sally made a valid contract with Harry to pay him for mowing her lawn.
b)Harry was not entitled to insist on being paid $50 because he mowed the lawn before Sally promised to pay him.
c)Sally can refuse to pay Harry the $50 that she promised to pay him.
d)If Sally had promised to pay Harry for mowing the lawn before he did the job, it would be a valid contract that Harry can enforce in Court.
