Dewey v. Burbank

77 N.C. 259

Opinion

PeaesoN, C. J.

A minor who makes a contract has his election after arriving at the age of twenty-one years, either to avoid or to confirm the contract.

The fact that the purchaser of land continues to live on it and cultivate it after he arrives at age, together with the fact that he pays a part of the purchase money, amounts to an election to confirm the contract.

No error.

Pee, Cuexam. Judgment affirmed.
