Misrepresentation in contract law can render agreements voidable when false assertions or misleading conduct induce consent. Misrepresentation comprises three categories: a positive assertion lacking warranted information that is untrue though believed true; a breach of duty that, without intent to deceive, gains advantage by misleading another to their prejudice; and conduct that, even innocently, induces a party to mistake the substance of the contract's subject-matter.
