Innominate contract
An innominate contract ( Latin : contractus innominatus ) was a so-called “unnamed” contract in Roman law , which became actionable because one contracting party performed and thus obliged the other contracting party to provide consideration , a synallagma was created. It did not correspond to the type constraints of Roman law. Nowadays every contract is actionable.
A non-actionable agreement in Roman law was a nudum pactum .
