It explains a series of rules developed by the law that guide the courts into making decisions about whether obligations will be enforced and analyses how courts enforce most contracts in circumstances where the parties had an intention to create legal relations. It also identifies parties that have the capacity to contract, such as adults and corporations. This chapter explains how undischarged bankrupt may enter into a contract without committing a criminal offence. It mentions government departments that can contract and sue or be sued pursuant to their contracts.","PeriodicalId":296429,"journal":{"name":"Wilmot-Smith on Construction Contracts","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124448673","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It mentions a specific performance as an order of the court which requires a party to perform its contractual promises. It also talks about the contracts for the sale of land as an order for specific performance that encompasses the empowerment of an officer of the court to perform the obligation if the party which has contracted to sell then refuses to do so. This chapter clarifies that a specific performance is to all intents and purposes a sub-species of an injunction. It cites orders for specific performance that are under development agreements where a developer or management company has agreed to execute work to a proper standard and has not done so in the construction sphere.","PeriodicalId":296429,"journal":{"name":"Wilmot-Smith on Construction Contracts","volume":"68 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121652754","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It explains how a forfeiture clause may allow determination for cause or determination without cause. It also points out that a forfeiture clause will not exclude common law rights to terminate and subsist in parallel to the forfeiture clause. This chapter assesses the standard forms of contract that often refer to forfeiture clauses as termination clauses and sometimes use the language of rescission. It defines rescission as the unwinding of a contract back to the point of its inception.","PeriodicalId":296429,"journal":{"name":"Wilmot-Smith on Construction Contracts","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130059846","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It analyses the Arbitration Act 1996, which governs all arbitrations in England and Wales and provides that an arbitration agreement is made in writing. It also discusses the special nature of an arbitration agreement as it is not discharged by death and survives the repudiation, frustration, or discharge of the agreement with which it is concerned. This chapter elaborates that the first step for any employer, contractor, or sub-contractor involved in a dispute is to check and see whether the dispute is governed by an arbitration agreement. It reviews the most common incorporation by reference, which is when parties agree that a particular set of standard conditions shall govern their agreement.","PeriodicalId":296429,"journal":{"name":"Wilmot-Smith on Construction Contracts","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131086656","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This chapter describes the categories of recoverable loss, such as the damages which the other party ought to receive in respect of a breach of contract. It analyses the second limb of the rule in Hadley v Baxendale that relates to special circumstances known to the parties at the time the contract was made.","PeriodicalId":296429,"journal":{"name":"Wilmot-Smith on Construction Contracts","volume":"48 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126268882","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It explains how the law of tort is not to be understood only by the creation of a legal duty rather is dependent upon damage. It also notes the recovery in tort if someone has suffered damage, which is in contra-distinction to the law of contract. This chapter looks at damage and its categorization, focusing on the tort of negligence in relation to defective structures that has two separate species. It describes the first species that permits recovery for direct costs or losses that suffered as a result of a negligent act or omission, while the second species relates to all losses.","PeriodicalId":296429,"journal":{"name":"Wilmot-Smith on Construction Contracts","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129281121","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It reviews the very nature of the construction industry that makes it more susceptible to bribery than other industries as large projects are complex and will often involve interaction between multiple parties. It also emphasizes how bribery can occur at any stage in a construction project, such as in planning, design, tendering, construction, operation, and maintenance. This chapter recounts the reform of the law on bribery that dates back to the Nolan Committee’s Report on Standards in Public Life in 1995, which was set up in response to concerns about unethical conduct by those in public office. It refers to the Law Commission that first made proposals for reform of bribery in its 1998 Report.","PeriodicalId":296429,"journal":{"name":"Wilmot-Smith on Construction Contracts","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121866802","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
