Offer, Acceptance, And Efficient Reliance, Richard Craswell Feb 1996

Offer, Acceptance, And Efficient Reliance, Richard Craswell

Articles

In this article, Professor Craswell explores efficient reliance as an implicit economic rationale underlying courts' decisions in contract formation cases. Contracting parties often fail to express their intentions clearly and courts must later decide what the parties would have wanted ex ante. When negotiations fail, one party (S) may deny ever making a commitment, while the other party (B) may claim to have relied on the first party's statements or conduct.

Congress, Constitutional Moments, And The Cost-Benefit State Legislative Foreword, Cass R. Sunstein Jan 1996

Professor Sunstein believes that the election of this Congress, with its distinctive approach to government, signals the dawning of a "constitutional moment" in which the role of government at all levels will be reexamined. Without full public support for sweeping changes in government, this moment has not yet materialized. When and if it does, regulatory reform will be one of its aspects.

A lawyer representing seven-year-old James discussed James' options with him at considerable length. She explained to him that he had a number of choices about where he would live, some with family, some in foster care, and she took pains to discuss the likely consequences of each of his choices. James participated actively in the conversation, and had no trouble following the substance of the discussion. At the end of their conversation, the lawyer asked James what option he would like her to pursue. His direction to counsel: "I think I'd like to live with you.
