Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Tom's promise of not to sue is an example of forbearance. This type of promise is called promissory estoppel, which is enforceable when it is supported by consideration. In this case, the consideration is the act of forbearing from suing. Thus, option C is the most appropriate answer. Option A is incorrect because the forbearance promise is not necessarily associated with promissory estoppel. Option B is incorrect because the promise to donate money is not an example of forbearance, and a charitable pledge is not always enforceable. Option D is incorrect because legal detriment is not the consideration for the promise of not to sue.
