Read a random definition: de bono et malo

A quick definition of implied promise:

An implied promise is when someone doesn't say they will do something, but it's expected that they will. It's like when you go to a restaurant and expect the waiter to bring you your food, even though they didn't say they would. The law sometimes recognizes implied promises to make sure people don't cheat or take advantage of each other.

A more thorough explanation:

An implied promise is a promise that is created by law to hold someone accountable for a contract to prevent fraud or unfair enrichment. It is also known as a fictitious promise. For example, if you hire a contractor to build a house, there is an implied promise that the contractor will complete the work according to the agreed-upon terms and specifications.

Another example of an implied promise is when you go to a restaurant and order food. There is an implied promise that the food will be prepared and served in a safe and sanitary manner.

Overall, an implied promise is a legal obligation that is not explicitly stated but is understood to exist based on the circumstances and actions of the parties involved.
