What is the meaning of MEETING OF THE MINDS?

In order for a contract to be enforceable, the parties to it must come to a common understanding of the terms of their agreement. If no such common understanding has occurred with regard to a material clause in the contract, the contract may be void able. This common understanding is referred to at common law as a "MEETING OF THE MINDS".
