Question

Ordinarily, which of the following assignments or delegations will be valid without the consent of the other parties? Select one a. Assignment by the lessee of a lease contract if rent is a percentage of sales b. Assignment by a purchaser of goods of the right to buy on credit without giving security. c. Delegation by a patent holder of her obligation to design a next generation prototype O d. Assignment by an architect of the right to receive payment for the work the architect did designing a building. e. None of the above

Explanation / Answer

c. An assignment occurs when an original party to the contract transfers the rights and duties of the contract to another party. A party can assign the entire contract, meaning that the party assigns both the rights and the obligations of the contracts. Delegation, on the other hand, involves only a portion of the contract. With delegation, a particular contractual task or activity is transferred. Delegation means that an obligation is transferred but no rights are transferred. So in this case, the delegation of the power does nto require any consent from other parties as the delegator is delegating some portion of the contract only to the delegatee.
