Contracts
In Wyoming, which of the following would render a real estate contract void?

BAn agreement to sell a property the seller does not own or have the right to sell✓ Correct
CThe use of a non-standard form
DA handwritten modification to a typed contract
Explanation
A contract to sell property that the seller has no legal right to sell may be void or unenforceable. While some courts may treat this as voidable, the lack of legal authority to transfer the property is a fundamental defect. Clerical errors, non-standard forms, and handwritten modifications generally do not void contracts.
