Supreme Court cases on contracts
Supreme Court cases on contracts clarify fundamental legal principles like enforceability, breach, and interpretation. For example, in *Carlill v. Carbolic Smoke Ball Company*, the Court confirmed that advertisements can sometimes be considered binding offers. In *Keystone Auto v. Johnson*, it reinforced that contracts must have clear mutual assent and consideration. These rulings help ensure that agreements are fair and predictable, guiding lower courts and businesses in resolving contractual disputes. Overall, Supreme Court decisions shape the legal standards for forming, executing, and enforcing contracts across the United States.
