APCO Law Practice Exam

Question: 1 / 400

What may happen as a consequence of a breach of contract?

The parties never meet again

The injured party may seek damages or specific performance

In the context of a breach of contract, the primary legal remedies available to the injured party typically include seeking damages or specific performance. Damages are a monetary compensation awarded to the non-breaching party to cover the loss suffered as a result of the breach. This helps to restore the injured party to the position they would have been in had the contract been fulfilled.

Specific performance is another remedy where the court orders the breaching party to fulfill their obligations under the contract. This approach is often employed in cases where damages are insufficient to remedy the harm done, such as in contracts involving unique goods or property.

While it's true that other consequences can occur due to a breach of contract, seeking damages or specific performance directly addresses the legal implications and remedies available through the legal system.
