1- When a college student complained about a particular course, the vice president of the college asked the teacher toprepareda detailed report about the course. The teacher did and then demanded additional compensation for the time spent in preparing the report. He claimed that the college was liable to provide compensation on an implied contract.

2- Smith made a contract to sell automatic rifles to a foreign country.Because the sale of such weapons to that country was illegal under an act of Congress, Smith was prosecuted by the U.S. government for making the contract.He raised the defense that because the contract was illegal, it was void and there is no binding obligation when a contract is void; therefore, no contract for which he could be prosecuted existed.Was he correct?

This is for my business law 1 homework.
