Talk:Slade's Case

Casebox etc
I hope these updates are alright - I have added a reference to Bret v JS within the footnote and saying that this case was one of the first to talk about consideration. It would be interesting to know who Coke was talking to at the time - maybe the whole judiciary was being swung round, with this case ongoing, that English law should adopt the doctrine? And I wonder how that linked to the arguments that were being put forward over the claim for debt, as a reason for getting a claim for it back when the contract failed?

 * No idea, actually. I have a textbook on the history of contract law, with a particular focus on consideration, somewhere in my library; I'll try and fish it out in a few months (submitting dissertations is fun) for a History of English contract law article, and this'll hopefully make an impact as well.

Who's Boyer?
I assume it's Allen D. Boyer from the bibliography, but the first time he just pops up with a random musing, his second rumination is preceded by a vague appellation, and his first name isn't shown in the main article at all. Maybe link him if he has a Wp. 50.64.119.38 (talk) 16:05, 4 June 2017 (UTC)
