Simple English definitions for legal terms

essential mistake

Read a random definition: stellionatus

A quick definition of essential mistake:

An essential mistake is a really big mistake that changes what was promised in a contract. It's like when you order a pizza with pepperoni, but they give you a pizza with mushrooms instead. That's a mistake, but it's not essential because you can still eat the pizza. But if you ordered a pizza with no cheese because you're lactose intolerant, and they give you a pizza with extra cheese, that's an essential mistake because you can't eat it and it's not what you agreed to.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A mistake that is so fundamental to a contract that it makes the performance of the contract essentially different from what was promised. It is a contractual provision that must be included for a contract to exist.

Example: A company agrees to sell a car to a customer, but mistakenly delivers a bicycle instead. This mistake is an essential mistake because the delivery of a bicycle instead of a car makes the performance of the contract essentially different from what was promised.

Explanation: In this example, the mistake is so fundamental that it changes the entire nature of the contract. The customer did not agree to purchase a bicycle, but a car. Therefore, the mistake is an essential mistake, and the contract cannot be enforced as it was not performed as promised.

im distracting myself by schizo-scrolling r/lawschoolamissions and every conceivable data point on this godforsaken website
it is not working
Haaa I naturally want to do that too. I’m trying to stop. They need a surgeon general’s warning on this site for perspective law students
i spend more time on here then anything else trying to rationalize that the waves from last year will match waves for this year (they won't) and that the stats of people with the same stats are indicative of my own (they aren't)
There aren't many people in my stat range so I pretty much know every result in my range after being on here for a few years
