Question 1
Teri and Mitchell decided to live together after dating for a year. Rather than move into one or the other's current apartment, they leased a new apartment and commingled their funds to furnish the place. Orally, they promised to split everything 50/50 if they broke up. After living together for six months, Mitchell came home one day from work to find Teri (and all the furniture) gone. If Mitchell wants to sue Teri for his share of the property, what is the best argument?

Correct If nonmarital partners make a contract it should be enforced except to the extent that the contract is explicitly founded on the consideration of meretricious sexual services. Here, Teri and Mitchell had an express agreement to split their property 50/50; however, Teri did not honor that agreement.
