If any of these are absent, the contract may be void or voidable. The key elements are: mutual assent (both parties genuinely agreed to the same terms), consideration (each party gives something of value), legal capacity (both parties are adults of sound mind), lawful purpose (the contract cannot require illegal activity), and proper form (certain contracts must be in writing under Idaho&#8217;s Statute of Frauds).\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Beyond missing elements, courts may also refuse to enforce a contract that was signed under duress or coercion, was the result of fraud or material misrepresentation, or involved a significant mistake of fact that both parties shared. In Idaho, non-compete and non-solicitation agreements face additional scrutiny \u2014 they must be reasonable in scope, geographic area, and duration to be enforceable.
