Giải thích
A material breach is a serious failure that goes to the heart of the bargain and substantially deprives the injured party of what was reasonably expected. It excuses the non-breaching party from further performance and allows a suit for damages. A trivial or immaterial deviation is only a minor breach that entitles the injured party to damages but does not excuse their own performance. Abandonment is one example of material breach, but not the only one.
