Intoxicated persons are not capable of entering into a valid contract due to lack of capacity. However, if they receive necessaries (items or services necessary for their wellbeing) while intoxicated, they are still liable to pay the reasonable value of these necessaries under the doctrine of quasi-contract or unjust enrichment.
