What type of contract is made to commit a crime?

A contract made to commit a crime is classified as a void contract. This is because a void contract is inherently unenforceable by law due to its illegal nature. Contracts must adhere to the legal framework to be considered valid, and any agreement that involves illegal activities cannot be enforced in a court of law. Thus, any intention to create a contractual relationship that involves committing a crime nullifies the contract right from the outset. Therefore, such contracts lack legal binding and are treated as if they never existed.

The other options suggest different classifications of contracts that do not apply in this scenario. A valid contract would imply that the agreement is legally enforceable, and a legal contract would indicate adherence to the law, both of which are not applicable in the context of agreements involving criminal acts. An unenforceable agreement may suggest that while a contract exists, it cannot be enforced for specific reasons; however, the nature of committing a crime directly leads to the classification as void.
