A person who legally pleads non est factum is:

  1. Legally stating that he or she is under the age of majority.

  2. Asserting that the contract was not definite and clear, as it was lacking certain facts.

  3. Cannot be a minor or intoxicated person.

  4. Asserting that he or she didn't understand what was being signed or was misled in some way.

The correct answer is: Asserting that he or she didn't understand what was being signed or was misled in some way.

The correct answer indicates that a person invoking the plea of non est factum is claiming that they did not understand the nature of the document they were signing, or that they were misled in some way about its content. This legal principle allows individuals to void a contract if they can demonstrate that they were unaware of the specific terms due to a lack of understanding or were deceived regarding the agreement. This plea is historically rooted in situations where a party’s signature does not reflect their intentions or understanding, often due to factors such as deception, fraud, or a lack of capacity to comprehend the contract at hand. It serves as a protective measure for those who may be vulnerable to exploitation in contractual agreements.
