Consideration Flashcards
There must have been consideration from…
..both the promisor and the promised.
‘A promise to pay, do or give something in return…
…for the other parties promise’ meaning both parties gain or lose someone. Meaning it cannot be a gift.

Re McArdle
Promising to pay someone for work they have already done, before the promise was made, is not sufficient consideration.

If someone is acting under duty then it cannot be consideration.
