Practice question: Employment Subject to a Suspensive Condition

Multiple Choice Medium

Practice question

An agreement validly requires two independent approvals before effectivity. Applicant proves the first, and the second remains genuinely pending. No wrongful prevention exists. Does acceptance plus the first approval alone establish complete fulfillment?
  1. Yes; only the first approval may ever matter.
  2. Yes; acceptance automatically issues every approval.
  3. No; therefore the employer may invent additional conditions.
  4. Yes; a salary figure replaces the condition.
  5. No; the second agreed condition still requires assessment.
