Why is an offeree's silence not considered to be acceptance of an offer?
On Jun 18, 2024
Contract law generally requires some objective indication that an offeree intends to contract.Therefore,the general rule is that an offeree's silence,without more,is not an acceptance.However,there are cases in which the offeree's silence objectively indicates an intent to accept.Customary trade practice or prior dealings between the parties are some areas where silence signals acceptance of the offer.
