Question

When a printed form contract has additional handwritten terms, courts will A. interpret handwritten terms to control printed ones. B. replace the handwritten terms with typed terms. C. disregard both printed terms and handwritten ones. D. remove the handwritten terms.

Answer 1

Answer: A. Interpret handwritten terms to control printed ones

Explanation: The court will certainly take into account all the relevant terms of the contract, whether printed or handwritten. For any written term of the contract to be relevant, there must be evidence of it in the sense of being stamped or otherwise. Then the handwritten parts / terms of the contract are used to execute the control of the printed one.
