Document Summary

They waive the right to sue for any damage that is caused while you are in possession of the vehicle. Arguing against the coverage of the contract. Clendenning is not arguing that he wants to be out of the contract. That would have meant that he was entitled to use the car. He is si(cid:373)ply argui(cid:374)g that he does(cid:374)"t (cid:449)a(cid:374)t to (cid:271)e (cid:271)ou(cid:374)d (cid:271)y so(cid:373)e parti(cid:272)ular ter(cid:373)s a(cid:374)d therefore, he does(cid:374)"t (cid:449)a(cid:374)t to pay for the da(cid:373)ages. The rule of l"estrange v. grau(cid:272)o(cid:271) whatever is written on paper is what stands, regardless of what people say. If you signed it, then you intended for the law to be binding. You are only able to let out of a contract when in writing with signature in the case of: fraud, misrepresentation innocent or purposeful. They said something that was untrue: duress threatening, non est factum not my deed. Rarely a successful defence, very rarely a clear example.
