Legal Analysis
Whether the contract is handwritten or not does not affect the validity of the contract. If both parties sign and fingerprint, it can be deemed that both parties have reached an agreement. Generally the contract is valid. Generally, a civil legal act is valid if it meets the following conditions: (1) the actor has the corresponding capacity for civil conduct; (2) the intention is true; (3) it does not violate the mandatory provisions of laws and administrative regulations, and does not violate social order and good customs. Civil capacity includes contractual capacity and corresponding contracting capacity, which are the basic conditions for the parties to understand and grasp the development status and legal effects of the contract. In principle, a natural person must have full capacity to sign a contract. Persons with limited capacity and persons without capacity are not allowed to sign a contract in person, but must be signed by their legal agent on their behalf. The expressive behavior of the contracting party should truly reflect the effective intention in his heart, that is, the effective intention is consistent with the expressive act. If the expression of intention is untrue, the impact on the validity of the contract shall depend on the specific circumstances. In case of general misunderstanding etc., the contract remains valid. In the event of a major misunderstanding, the contract may be changed or revoked. Does not violate the law or social interests.
