Extended information:

A contract is usually required to be concluded in writing, and its commitments must also be in writing. For example, Article 2-201 of Title II of the Uniform Commercial Code of the United States stipulates that any contract for the sale of goods with a price exceeding US$5,000 must be made in writing, unless otherwise provided by the Code. Otherwise, the court cannot be required to enforce it. In principle, courts do not accept oral evidence regarding such contracts in litigation.
