unconscionable clause

An unconscionable clause is a contract term that is extremely unfair or grossly one-sided, to the point that it shocks the conscience of the court. It often involves an imbalance of power, where one party imposes harsh or unfair conditions on the other, making it unreasonable or oppressive. Courts may refuse to enforce such clauses to prevent unfair outcomes and protect parties from exploitation. Essentially, it's a contractual provision so unjust that it defies fairness and legal enforcement.
