imagine thinking breaching contract is illegal.
I mean, the wording is shady, but exiting contracts isn't some end of the universe event, you pay whatever penalty are present for the contract termination and that's it.
People are also free to sue for monetary damages incurred from having to pay upfront whatever work they had to do to prepare their roof, and again, doesn't make exiting a contract illegal.
Parent is right in not jumping the shark and branding things names they aren't.
- zeusk 6y agobreach of contract is not a criminal offense, but very likely to land you in a civil suit on the losing side.
- avereveard 6y agoand? that's beyond the point being made. a tort gives the other party a legal liability, and still is not necessarily deriving form an illegal practice. heck, it's not even clear if it's actually a breach of contract since they were willing to return deposits etc.
- Someone 6y agoSo, you think breaching a contract isn’t illegal, yet people can go to court and win? What rules do you think courts use to make judgements?
- avereveard 6y agoabsolutely. court will do enforcement of the clauses and will apply remedies for damages if a tort is found. doesn't make breaching contract against the law, unless a law is violated while breaching the contract (i.e. fraud) so by contrast you think the ever given being late against their delivery contract is illegal?
