For example lets say a contract requires you to give a BJ or donate one of your limbs, and you signed it. What happens? How does the court deal with contracts like this?
In: Other
Some contract provisions are legally unenforceable. That (usually) means that the parts of the contract that are independent of that section continue to apply, but the parts that depend on it are all invalid. If there’s a dispute about whether some part of the contract depends on an unenforceable section, the court will evaluate it and determine what is legally required.
A provision being unenforceable can be simply a matter of common sense (e.g. a contract that requires you to commit a murder is by definition unenforceable), or it can be an official matter of law, e.g. New York state has laws against certain kinds of non-disclosure agreement (NDA) with regard to sexual assault or sexual harassment, meaning any such provision is inherently void regardless.
