A common mnemonic for the Statute of Frauds is "MY LEGS," which stands for Marriage, Year (one year or more), Land (real estate), Executorship (wills), Goods (goods valued over a certain amount), and Surety (guarantees). This helps remember the types of contracts that typically must be in writing to be enforceable. Each element corresponds to a category that falls under the requirements of the Statute of Frauds.
