Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Since Kenneth is a minor, his contract with Robin is voidable at Kenneth's option. However, if Robin, before Kenneth disaffirms the contract, sells the car to Sarah, who is an innocent third party and has no knowledge of the initial contract's issues, Sarah can obtain good title to the property. This is because the law protects innocent third parties in transactions involving goods.
