Practice question

  1. Estimable benefit always erases the in-all-events clause.
  2. Authority consent automatically extinguishes all compensation.
  3. Only the actor’s age matters.
  4. Every affected person automatically owes an identical amount.
  5. The express special-allocation direction must be considered despite that assertion.
