California Codes, Civil Code - CIV, Division 3 — Obligations, Part 2 — Contracts, Title 1 — Nature of a Contract, Chapter 3 — Consent, Section 1589
A voluntary acceptance of the benefit of a transaction is equivalent to a consent to all the obligations arising from it, so far as the facts are known, or ought to be known, to the person accepting.
Notes
Establishes that voluntarily accepting the benefit of a transaction is equivalent to consenting to the obligations arising from that transaction to the extent the accepting person knows, or ought to know, the relevant facts. The consent effect is therefore limited by the facts known or reasonably knowable to the recipient.
