Contract Frustration

Contract Frustration Definition

When a contract is frustrated, it means that it can no longer be carried out according to its original terms. This can happen for a number of reasons, including changes in the law, unforeseen circumstances, or the death or incapacity of one of the parties.

When a contract is frustration, it is void and unenforceable. This means that neither party can sue the other for breach of contract. However, there may be some limited exceptions to this rule, depending on the jurisdiction. For example, in some jurisdictions, a party may be able to recover damages if they can prove that the other party caused the frustration intentionally.

If you are facing a contract frustration situation, it’s important to seek legal advice as soon as possible. An experienced lawyer will be able to advise you on your rights and options under the law.
