Restitution Measures are an award which seeks to return the value of a benefit which has been seen to be unfairly received.
Which of the following statements about Restitution Measures is TRUE? Select TWO

  1. restitution damages intend to return the innocent party to the position they were in be-fore the contract
  2. restitution damages considers the position of the breaching party before the contract
  3. restitution damages are based on how much was gained by the breaching party as a re-sult of the breach
  4. restitution damages are not limited to pre-agreed levels stated in the contract

Answer(s): A,C

Explanation:

The correct answers are 1 and 3. These are taken from p. 124. Option 2 is incorrect - this is the definition of reliance damages. Option 4 is also incorrect- restitution damages are limited to pre- agreed levels stated in the contract.



A breach of representation by party A in a contract would allow party B to do what?

  1. rescind the contract
  2. claim damages
  3. rescind the contract and claim damages
  4. nothing - this is not a fundamental breach

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

A breach of representation is a major/ fundamental breach and allows the innocent party to rescind the contract and claim damages. A Breach of Representation is when you provide false information about who you are- this might have been a fundamental reason as to why the contract went ahead. If it turns out not to be true, the other party has the right to cancel the contract and claim damages.
See p.126



Alan has an ongoing contract with a supplier for the provision of gardening tools to his horti-culture business. He has been working with the supplier for over 20 years and has recently discovered that the supplier committed a breach in a warranty 3 years ago. Can Alan claim damages?

  1. yes- the breach has occurred and a contract is in place
  2. yes- Alan can claim damages and rescind the contract
  3. no- Alan could only claim if the breach was of a condition, not a warranty
  4. no- Alan cannot claim because the breach was so long ago

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

"Yes- A Breach has occurred and a contract is in place" - this is the correct answer. Claims against warranties can be made up to six years from the date the contract is breached. Option 2 isn't correct as a breach in warranty does not allow you to rescind the contract. Options 3 and 4 are incorrect because Alan CAN claim damages. There's a useful table about warranties and conditions on p. 127



If a party is to 'repudiate' a contract, what does this mean?

  1. the party is cancelling the contract as it is no longer needed
  2. the party is using the break-clause to end the contract
  3. the party indicates they no longer intend to fulfil their contractual obligations, usually in response to a breach
  4. the party gives notice that they anticipate that they will not be able to fulfil their future obligations

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

"the party indicates they no longer intend to fulfil their contractual obligations, usually in response to a breach". This is the definition of 'repudiate' given on p. 128 Before the exam check you understand the difference between repudiate, rescind and revoke. These are all ways contracts can end but are slightly different.



Which of the following statements about 'Specific Performance' are TRUE? Select TWO.

  1. Orders for Specific Performance can be a lengthy and costly process
  2. Orders for Specific Performance can be a cheap and quick way to remedy a breach in contract
  3. If a party is ordered to complete a 'Specific Performance' and doesn't, they can be ar-rested
  4. The innocent party must mitigate all losses

Answer(s): A,C

Explanation:

1+3 are correct. Specific Performance tend to go through the courts so this is a lengthy and costly process. Because it's mandated by the courts it means that if the offending party doesn't comply, this is a criminal offence and they can be arrested. Option 2 is incorrect as it is the opposite of option 1. Option 4 is incorrect because there is no need for the innocent party to mitigate any losses. See p.
132 for more information on Specific Performance
