Response To Reasonable Expectations In Sociocultural Context, David G. Epstein
Response To Reasonable Expectations In Sociocultural Context, David G. Epstein
Law Faculty Publications
The Article starts 6 (and ends)7 with the premise that contract law should enforce the reasonable expectations of the parties. This is a hard premise to challenge.8 And an even harder premise to apply.9 The Article recognizes the two problems with applying this premise: (1) how does a court decide what expectations are “reasonable,”10 and (2) what does a court do when the contracting parties have different reasonable expectations.11 The Article then uses two cases to illustrate how “sociocultural dissonance between a judge and contracting party”12 exacerbates these problems.
Maybe Dick Speidel Was Right About Court Adjustment, Robert A. Hillman
Maybe Dick Speidel Was Right About Court Adjustment, Robert A. Hillman
Cornell Law Faculty Publications
In a symposium to honor Professor Richard Speidel, a giant in the field of contract and commercial law for over four decades, this contribution argues that Speidel may have been correct in asserting that, in limited circumstances, court adjustment of disrupted long-term contracts makes sense. I assert that nothing courts have decided or writers have analyzed since the ALCOA case proves that court adjustment is wrong-headed. But, as with so many policy issues, we may never identify the "best" judicial approach to disrupted long-term contracts because resolution depends on too many variables and unknowns.

The Collision Of Tort And Contract In The Construction Industry, Murray H. Wright, Edward E. Nicholas Iii
The Collision Of Tort And Contract In The Construction Industry, Murray H. Wright, Edward E. Nicholas Iii
University of Richmond Law Review
Over the past two decades, several courts have allowed construction industry plaintiffs to assert tort claims to recover for purely economic losses (i.e. other than injury to person or property) from other participants in the construction process. Parties assert tort claims, instead of or in addition to contract claims, to take advantage of the more liberal tort damage rules and, probably more importantly, to escape unfavorable contract provisions. This article briefly discusses the different origins and goals of tort and contract law. It then reviews some of the decisions allowing recovery of purely economic losses in tort as well as …

Contracts--Effect Of Stipulation For Re-Negotiation Upon Stated Contingency--Impossibility Of Performance, John F. Buchman, Iii
Michigan Law Review
Plaintiff, popular star of "western" motion pictures, was under contract to defendant, extended by successive options through March 6, 1944, to act in eight pictures per year, at a graduated salary which would become $14,000 per picture during the last year of the contract. In May, 1942, a further contract was made, by which defendant secured an option on plaintiff's services for another year, which option it duly exercised. This later contract provided that if plaintiff went into military service, the parties would "agree upon their mutual rights and obligations" under the two contracts in view of that fact. This …
