Question

Sergei Samsanov is a Russian and one of the top hockey players in the world. When Samsanov was sixteen years old, he signed a contract to play hockey for two seasons with the Buffalo Sabres. Before the start of the second season, Samsonov hired Athletes and Artists. Inc, (A&A;), a sports agency, to make a deal with the Detroit Vipers. Samsonov signed a contract to play for the Detroit Vipers. A&A; and the Detroit Vipers both knew about Samsonov's contract with the Sabres. The Sabres filed a suit against the Detroit Vipers and others alleging, among other things, wrongful interference with a contractual relationship. What effect will Samsonov's age have on the outcome of this suit?

Explanation / Answer

Since Samsonov was only 16 years old at the time of signing the contract; there won’t be any legal implications for breaching the contract as he will be considered a minor according to the courts.
