This review covers decisions in contract law since the last seminar in 2022. As with earlier reviews. The cases reviewed are from the courts of New Zealand and other common law jurisdictions which share fundamental principles in contract law. While in some earlier reviews significant changes and reformulations of the principles in the law of contract have been noted, such changes tend to be the exception in this area of the law where certainty is considered to be very important. In the recent period the decisions have been concerned with the application of established principles. One or two cases follow naturally from the last review. Generally, the cases have been chosen to illustrate the application of the law in different circumstances; some show the inherent difficulty in deciding disputes by applying the relevant principles, particularly disputes concerning the meaning of agreements. Again, the aim is to assist lawyers in their work with contracts.
These are the slides included in the presentation.
