§ 206 (Restatement)

Section 206 of the Restatement of Contracts states that when someone promises to do something in the future, and this promise is part of a contract, then they are legally obliged to fulfill that promise if the agreement is considered valid and enforceable. Essentially, it underscores that promises made as part of a contract are binding, and the person making the promise has a legal duty to follow through on what they agreed upon, ensuring that contractual commitments are respected and enforceable in a court of law.
