Hello,
If condition of contract is breached then can innocent party instead of discharging the contract, continue the contract and claim damages only? Please do not close the topic for 1-2 days because may be I have to ask a followup question on the same issue
The problem with not closing is that others may piggy-back onto your thread with questions that are totally unrelated so, sorry, but I’m going to close it and you can start a new thread should you have further issues
“…can innocent party instead of discharging the contract, continue the contract and claim damages only?”
Yes, for a breach of condition, the innocent party may either treat the contract as terminated and claim damages or may simply claim damages (treat as discharged and / or damages)
Whereas for a breach of warranty the remedy available is damages only
OK
