Misrepresentation: Difference between revisions

{{g}}A [[representation]] that misses. Being as it is an inducement to enter into a {{tag|contract}}, and not a term of a contract in its own right, a broken representation entitles one to set aside the contract altogether as a failure of [[offer and acceptance]], and any [[consideration]] subsequently delivered to be returned to the payer (perhaps on the basis of a [[restitution]]ary action for [[money had and received]]), to put the parties in the position they had been in before they entered into the {{tag|contract}}.
