The parol evidence rule is an important rule of evidence and contract law. In it's simplest statement, where a written contract exists, a party is not permitted to introduce any evidence from prior to the formation of the contract as to what the terms of the contract are. In other words, the written form of the contract is considered to be complete and final, and as such any allegation that the terms are anything other than what is in the written document cannot succeed.

abstract
  • The parol evidence rule is an important rule of evidence and contract law. In it's simplest statement, where a written contract exists, a party is not permitted to introduce any evidence from prior to the formation of the contract as to what the terms of the contract are. In other words, the written form of the contract is considered to be complete and final, and as such any allegation that the terms are anything other than what is in the written document cannot succeed. However, there is one important exception - if a term of the contract is ambiguous, parol evidence is permitted to determine how the ambiguity is resolved.
