Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The court will most likely admit evidence of additional terms that are consistent with the written contract because the parties intended their written contract to be a final statement of most, but not all, of the terms of their agreement. Consistent additional terms would be seen as supplementing the written contract rather than contradicting it.
