Contracts
In Minnesota, which of the following would make a purchase agreement voidable (not void) by the innocent party?
AIllegal purpose
BForgery of signatures
CFraudulent misrepresentation by one party✓ Correct
DBoth parties being minors
Explanation
Fraudulent misrepresentation makes a contract voidable (not automatically void) - the innocent party can choose to void the contract or affirm it. Void contracts (illegal purpose, forged signatures, both parties under 18) are void from inception and cannot be affirmed. The distinction matters because a voidable contract remains in effect unless the innocent party elects to avoid it.
