Kalen is a seventeen-year-old minor who has just graduated from high school. He is attending a university two hundred miles from home and has contracted to rent an apartment near the university for one year at $500 per month. He is working at a convenience store to earn enough income to be self-supporting. After living in the apartment and paying monthly rent for four months, he becomes involved in a dispute with his landlord. Kalen, still a minor, moves out and returns the key to the landlord. The landlord wants to hold Kalen liable for the balance of the payments due under the lease. Discuss fully Kalen's liability in this situation.

Kalen is not liable to pay the eight months remaining under the lease,

Explanation:

Kalen is not liable to pay the eight months remaining under the lease, since he has legally disaffirmed from the contract by giving the keys back to the landlord. He is not to be bound to the contract. He can disaffirm the contract but remains liable for the value of goods he used (4 months).

The landlord cannot hold him liable for the remaining payment because As a minor Kalen does not have the legal capacity to enter into a contract except in sport or entertainment. Minors are not bestowed civil or political rights because the law says they are too young to handle these responsibilities.

According to the law a contract is valid when both parties have the legal capacity to enter into the contract. Otherwise it is void. Therefore Kalen owes no liability to her landlord
