If the judge orders it, and you refuse to, you could be held in contempt of court until you change your mind. Why not sign it? In the final analysis it makes no difference whether the order goes into effect or not.
In theory, no - it contravenes your rights under employment or contract law in most western countries. In practice, the consequences of not signing (or agreeing to the terms of) a new contract can be expensive or even result in loss of employment, and while due process may be pursued in the courts, it often seems easier simply to acquiesce, and to sign a contract against your better judgement.
If you feel that you are being forced to sign a contract against your will, you should reference local law on the subject. If you are a member of a union, it would be best to discuss your options with your union representative before signing a new contract of employment.
IF you signed a contract, it wasn't forced on you. If you didn't sign a contract you can return it as you wish.
yes because when u are signing papers they will ask for a signature
If you can prove that you were forced (by gunpoint) to enter into a contract, the court will void the contract. A legal contract is a legal agreement between two or more willing participants. If you were forced into a contract, then you were not a willing participant. I suggest you contact anyone who may have witnessed this event, gather evidence regarding the forced signing, and have a restraining order issued against the forceful individual.
No, not unless you sign a contract
A company will supply a service if you sign a contract with them. If you do not agree then do not sign. If you do sign, you are required to fulfill the terms of the contract.
yes that is why you have a contract
I will sign it with my full name after throughly reading the contract.
The car dealership did not sign my contract, is it still binding?
If you are in an at-will employment state, than probably yes, depending on state statutes. However, if you happened to sign the contract, the contract would probably be held unenforceable because it was signed under duress. To form a contract there must be mutual assent, which essentially means that the parties to the contract must actually agree to the terms and must actually want to enter into a contract. No one can ever force you to enter into a contract.
There is no requirement that an attorney sign a contract
The time to sign a contract is when both parties have agreed to the terms of the contract.
