Contracts
A Wyoming buyer wishes to rescind a purchase contract because they changed their mind. Under contract law, the buyer:
AMay rescind at any time for any reason
BMay generally only rescind for a valid legal reason (fraud, misrepresentation, mutual mistake) or if a contingency allows it✓ Correct
CMust obtain court approval to rescind
DIs automatically refunded the earnest money
Explanation
Rescission (cancellation) of a contract requires a legal basis such as fraud, misrepresentation, mutual mistake, breach, or failure of a contingency. Simply changing one's mind is not a legal basis to rescind and may forfeit the earnest money.
