Breach of Contract
A breach of contract occurs when one party fails to fulfill their obligations as outlined in a legally binding agreement. This can happen if they do not perform as promised, deliver goods on time, or meet specific terms. The affected party may seek remedies, such as compensation for damages or specific performance (forcing the breaching party to fulfill their duties). It’s essential for contracts to have clear terms to determine when a breach has occurred and to protect the rights of both parties involved.
