Simple English definitions for legal terms

failure

Read a random definition: declaration of use

A quick definition of failure:

Failure means not being able to do something that was expected or required. It can also mean something that was supposed to happen didn't happen. For example, if you were supposed to clean your room but didn't, that's a failure. If a machine doesn't work like it's supposed to, that's also a failure. Sometimes failure can have legal consequences, like when someone doesn't fulfill their part of a contract.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Failure refers to a deficiency or lack of something expected or an omission of an action or performance that was expected.

Examples:

  • Failure of a condition: This refers to the non-occurrence of an event that was made a condition of a contract. For instance, if a contract was made on the condition that a certain product would be delivered by a specific date, and the product is not delivered by that date, it is considered a failure of condition.
  • Failure of consideration: This refers to a situation where one party fails to fulfill their part of the contract, leading to a failure of the entire contract. For example, if a person pays for a service, but the service provider fails to deliver the service, it is considered a failure of consideration.
  • Failure of title: This refers to a situation where a seller is unable to establish a good claim to the property they contracted to sell. For instance, if a person sells a property they do not legally own, it is considered a failure of title.

These examples illustrate how failure can occur in different contexts, such as in contracts, property ownership, and service delivery.

Feeling like sad drinking tonight, wife accidentally tossed out my truck keys and those are expensive as fuck to replace. The crappiest part is that the key chain had the "remove before flight" tab from my first aircraft's rocket pods overseas from 6 years ago. Then find out people fucked around and back dated reports at work making me look like a shit bag so I am working later tonight and missing range time which is my weekly relax/me time. Add in my sleep meds stopped working, so I am thinking vodka (so I stay skinny and hot) and pizza by the fireplace kind of friday.
