Contracts IRAC example: Offer and Acceptance

[@lilsouljah17]

I just want to say how helpful this video has been. From a 1st year struggling law student!! I understand the IRAC methodology but I struggle at putting it together in an answer. All tutorials show it in the bullet point method, but the way you have broken it down and explained how to make linkages between the parts and develop full sentences is very easy to grasp! Honestly, I’ve just spent hours on KZbin watching videos and yours has been the most helpful. Thank you!!

Could you post a similar video but this time showing us an example on how to actually write it all out?

Thank you Danielle, so helpful, and I was happy because I deduced correctly it was an example of a counter- offer question thanks to your breakdown of the information & dates, which meant I actually remembered something from my classes after all, I will follow your method in answering my upcoming exam questions!

Hi, very helpful video. Isnt revocation of offer from classy roof occurs on 28th when letter was posted not received? And similarly counter offer was made on 27th when it was mailed? Regardless counteroffer destroyed original offer

Would it not been better had the instructor stated the issue/ legal question then defined what a valid contract is: Acceptance, offer, consideration, and agreement , then from here, dovetail the facts with the elements of contract/ rules of authority in sentences structure ? For instance, The issue is whether a legal binding contract exist between both parties. In whatever rule/ cited case , the court ruled that a valid contract rest on four pillars: Acceptance, offer, consideration, and agreement. Classy Roof sending a quote to Vue is expression of an offer . Then go through rest of the elements/ ingrediencies and apply the fact to each one. For instance, while an offer does exist, the fact that the condition on the bond is not met, there is no agreement. Here support your argument with use of case law to drive the point why no agreement exist.

Hi Danielle, can you please do an example question for construction of contractual terms and exclusion clauses (excluding the parol evidence rule as we aren’t doing that this semester apparently ) ?

thank you for your useful content! really appreciate it during the exam session. I also wanted to ask you, what is the difference between express and implied term and terms that are classified as warranty, conditions or innominate. I'm so confused as to whether these are two different categories of terms? do we need to first determine if its express or implied and then whether its a warranty? I hope this makes sense. Your help would be much appreciated!

Thank you for your comment and I am glad you have found this video helpful. To answer your question, this ultimately depends on the word count and requirements of the problem question. For example, in a 100 word response, there probably isn't enough room to cover the facts from the cases you are referencing as an authority. However for an in-depth discussion in a problem question it is a great idea to discuss (even if only briefly) how the key facts of the case you are using compare to your problem question facts. This shows the lecturer you have read the case, and understand why, or why the case does not apply to your scenario. It is important to only discuss or mention the KEY relevant facts which either demonstrate how your scenario is similar or dissimilar to the authority (based on the judge's reasoning). You do not want to include an entire paragraph discussing the authority case facts with no discussion of how it is relevant to your case!
