Contratos y EjecuciónPregunta 808 de 1605
A general contractor unequivocally tells the owner two weeks before the start date, 'We will not be doing your project at all.' This statement is an example of:
a.An anticipatory breach (anticipatory repudiation)
b.A minor breach
c.A permissible rescission
d.A valid change order
Explicación
When a party clearly and unequivocally indicates before performance is due that they will not perform, it is an anticipatory breach, or anticipatory repudiation. The injured party may treat the contract as breached immediately and pursue remedies without waiting for the performance date. This is not a mere minor breach, not a mutually agreed rescission, and not a change order.
