Parol Evidence Rule - Integration & Ambiguities

It introduces the parole evidence rule, which restricts the use of outside evidence to contradict a contract's terms. Exceptions to this rule are discussed, focusing on patent and latent ambiguities. Patent ambiguities are apparent on the document's face, while latent ambiguities are not immediately visible. The video explains how courts may allow outside evidence to resolve these ambiguities, highlighting the conditions under which this is permissible.
