Contract Law’S Transferability Bias, Paul Macmahon
Contract Law’S Transferability Bias, Paul Macmahon
Indiana Law Journal
When A makes a contract with B, it comes as no surprise that she is liable to B. If B can transfer her contractual rights to C, A is now liable to C. Parties in A’s position often have strong reasons to avoid being liable to suit by C. Contract law, however, seems determined to minimize and override these concerns.
