A verbal agreement between two parties that dictate how they will relate to each other is a contract.
Unless it fails to contain all the elements required of a valid contract (you know those elements, don't you Jimbo?) or it violates the Statute of Frauds or similar rules (you know about the Statute of Frauds and similar rules, don't you Jimbo?) or violates some public policy (you know about those public policy concepts don't you Jimbo?). Any failure along these lines would render such a verbal "agreement" unenforceable in contract. S a n d y

Yep, but do your own research.

Yep, see above.

Perhaps, though that was not my intent. Just wanted to see if you'd jump through the hoops after the fact and pretend you knew that stuff up front. As it is, I can only give you a "C." Not too bad, really, better than I would have guessed. S a n d y
