Opinion:
Where a contract
is governed by the Statute of Frauds, in this case 12.. V.S.A. § 181(5), "any changes made are subjected to the same requirements of form as the original provisions." Evarts v. Forte, 135 Vt. 306, 311, 376 A.2d 766, 769 (1977). Defendants' oral modification of the written contract is therefore unenforceable, and the judgment for plaintiffs is affirmed.
