Evaluate whether there is a binding contract in the case and why. Use the 5 elements of a contract. At a family party, a 17-year-old niece goes up to her uncle and tells him that she has been accepted at USD and she will be starting next Fall. The uncle, who is a USD graduate, says, “That is great. I’ll pay your tuition for the first year.” The niece responds, “That’s cool, thanks.” Is there a binding contract? Discuss each element required for an enforceable contract.

At the same party as in #1 above, the uncle says that he owns a small house near the campus and asks if his niece would like to rent it from him for $700 a month. She immediately says yes. She moves in but she never pays her uncle the rent. Is this a contract that the court will enforce if the uncle sues his niece for the rent? Why or why not?
