AI NOTESContract Law — Week 6: Consideration & Promissory Estoppel

HIGH EMPHASIS

Promissory Estoppel — Core Doctrine

Where a clear and unambiguous promise is made intending the promisee to rely on it, and they do so to their detriment, equity may prevent the promisor from resiling. Does not create new rights — it operates as a shield, not a sword.

Central London Property Trust v High Trees House [1947] KB 130 · Walton Stores v Maher (1988) 164 CLR 387

HIGH EMPHASIS

Objective Test for Contract Formation

Courts apply an objective test: would a reasonable person in the position of the offeree believe an offer was being made? The subjective intention of the offeror is irrelevant if the outward conduct manifests agreement.

Smith v Hughes (1871) LR 6 QB 597 · Taylor v Johnson (1983) 151 CLR 422

MEDIUM EMPHASIS

Past Consideration — General Rule

An act performed before a promise is made cannot constitute good consideration for that promise. The consideration must be given in exchange for the promise, not merely precede it.

Roscorla v Thomas [1842] · Pao On v Lau Yiu Long [1980] AC 614 (exception: prior request)

Uploaded my Property Law lecture and had structured notes with emphasis markers in three minutes. Knew exactly what to focus on. Passed with a Distinction.
