How should the court rule?

1.

1.None of the answers below

2.The court should overrule the objection because a contract is an agreement brought about by the meeting of two minds,not a writing.The writing is only a memorandum of the agreement, not the contract itself.

3.The court should overrule the objection because D is not testifying about the contents of the writing, but about her understanding of the agreement.Thus the best evidence rule does not apply.

4.The court should overrule the objection because the central issue in the case concerns the terms of the agreement,and the jury is entitled to hear D's interpretation of the terms.
