I've written out answers to all the chapter objectives, but so far there's a couple that I'm not sure on:

- Identify those simple contracts which must be in writing, evidenced in writing or can be oral (in Introduction to Contracts): it doesn't say anything in the textbook about contracts which can be oral?
- Identify when consideration is present (in Step 3: Consideration)

Can anyone help me out?

Estoppel means stop. The doctrine of promissory estoppel I think is used to enforce a promise that doesn't have sufficient consideration.

Indemnity I think means invincible or something :p
Here I looked it up

"in·dem·ni·ty (*n-dĕm'n*-tē) pronunciation
n., pl. -ties.

1. Security against damage, loss, or injury.
2. A legal exemption from liability for damages.
3. Compensation for damage, loss, or injury suffered"

Dunno about that otensible auth..where'd you get it from?

ostensible means apparent so if it looks like that there is authority...

I think its anything can be oral but some certain ones must be in writing, but I can't find anything about it.

And consideration is present when there is something of value that passes between the parties in exchange for a promise; the value is insignificant to the courts but it must be sufficient. In a bilateral contract the consideration for each promise is the other promise.
