1991 Brazilian census reported only a 1 percent to 2 percent disability rate, but the 2001 census recorded a 14.5 percent disability rate. Similar jumps in the measured rate of disability have occurred in Turkey (12.3 percent) and Nicaragua (10.1 percent).
unenforceable contract. Definition. A contract that has all the elements of a valid contract, yet neither party can sue the other to force performance of it. For example, an unsigned contract is generally unenforceable. Use this term in a sentence.
â¢ Unlike a void contract, which is unenforceable on its face, a voidable contract is presumed to be enforceable but for the presence of some factor -- here, the contractual capacity of one of the parties -- which permits a party lacking capacity to avoid his or her otherwise valid contractual obligations.
