Webster Street Partnership Ltd. V. Sheridan Summary

I don’t agree with the ruling in Webster street Partnership, Ltd. V. Sheridan. I agree that neither Sheridan nor Wilwerding was in need of shelter and since they had voluntarily left home and entered into a contract they should be liable. I don’t’ find it to be fair that the landlord gets taken for the money to which he rightly deserves. The potential money to which he could have actually had in his money was lost since he entered into a contract with the two minors. If I were ruling I would allow them to get out of the rest of the lease but not for what they had spent in the lease. While I understand that minors should be protected I still think that they should be held accountable in situations such as these.
