Warranty, Condition and Innominate Terms
These Contract Law notes look at Warranty, Condition, and Innominate terms. In the case of a breach of contract, the distinction between a provision that is a condition and one that is a warranty becomes important. It's easy for students to quickly understand the important facts in each case because they are given as short summaries. The ratio of the case, the reason for the ruling, and how the case comes up with the general principle come next. There are also comments on how the case should be used to give advice.
