Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Statute of Frauds requires that certain types of contracts be in writing to be enforceable. One of these types is a contract for the sale of goods for $500 or more. In this case, the contract is for the sale of a marriage, which is a service. However, the value of the service is not specified. Therefore, the contract must be in writing to be enforceable if the amount Andy promises to pay is $50, $500, or $5,000.
