A quick definition of continuing breach:
A continuing breach is when someone breaks a promise they made in a contract over and over again or for a long time. This can happen if they don't do what they said they would do, say they won't do it, or stop someone else from doing it. When this happens, the person who was supposed to get something from the contract can ask for money to make up for what they lost. If the breach is really bad, they might be able to cancel the contract altogether.A more thorough explanation:
A continuing breach is a violation of a contractual obligation that endures for a considerable time or is repeated at short intervals. It is a breach of contract that persists over time.
For example, if a company fails to deliver goods to another company on the agreed-upon date and continues to do so for several weeks, it is a continuing breach. Another example is if a landlord fails to make necessary repairs to a rental property, despite repeated requests from the tenant.
Continuing breaches can give rise to claims for damages and other remedies. The aggrieved party may be entitled to terminate the contract and sue for damages immediately or wait until the time of performance has arrived and then call on the other party to perform.
