Genuine Reasons for Termination of a Contract of Specified Duration
- Breach of contract: A material breach of the contract by either party can lead to its termination. - Frustration of purpose: An event that makes the purpose of the contract impossible to fulfill can result in termination. - Mutual agreement: Both parties can agree to terminate the contract without cause. - Supervening illegality: A change in the law makes the contract illegal or unenforceable.
Genuine Reasons for Termination of a Contract of Unspecified Duration
- Common law grounds: These include breach of contract, frustration of purpose, and mutual agreement. - Statutory grounds: Some statutes provide specific grounds for termination of contracts of unspecified duration, such as: - Notice: Either party can terminate the contract by providing reasonable notice to the other party. - "For cause": The contract can be terminated for serious misconduct or repeated breaches of contract. - Constructive termination: The other party's conduct makes it clear that they do not intend to fulfill their obligations, even though they have not explicitly terminated the contract. - Implied term of reasonableness: In some cases, courts will imply a term into the contract that allows either party to terminate if it becomes unreasonable to continue. - Equity: A court may terminate a contract if it is inequitable or unfair to enforce it.
