Crosby contracts with Subban whereby Crosby agrees to sweep Subban retail shop at the end of each work day. Before the first pay
Alchen [17]

Crosby signs a contract with Subban and agrees to meet at Subban's business at the conclusion of each work day, before the first payment is due, and then files a lawsuit against Subban, claiming that the license is unenforceable because the license's objective is to protect the public.

<h3>What is contract?</h3>

A contract is the legal agreement between the two parties. It contains all the essentials of section 10. On the breach of such contract, the party who break the contract will be punishable under the act.

Crosby and Subban have a contract in which Crosby agrees to sweep Subban's retail store at the end of each work day. Subban discovers Crosby is unlicensed before the first payment is due.

All retail floor sweepers in Florida are required to be certified and pay annual dues.

As a result, Subban does not compensate Crosby for his efforts. When Crosby s pursues a breach of contract complaint against Subban to court, the judge will conclude the contract is invalid since the purpose of the license is to protect the public.

Therefore, the contract is unenforceable.
