A quick definition of onerous contract:

An onerous contract is an agreement between two or more parties that creates obligations that are enforceable by law. It can be a written document or a verbal agreement. A contract is like a promise, and if someone breaks that promise, the law can help the other person. An onerous contract is a contract that is difficult or expensive to fulfill, and it can cause problems for the parties involved.

A more thorough explanation:

An onerous contract is a type of contract that imposes a heavy burden or obligation on one of the parties involved. It is a contract that is disadvantageous or costly for one party to fulfill.

For example, if a person signs a contract to purchase a car that requires them to make monthly payments that are more than they can afford, it would be considered an onerous contract. The burden of making the payments would be too heavy for the person to bear.

Another example of an onerous contract is a lease agreement that requires a tenant to pay for all repairs and maintenance of the property, even if they are not responsible for the damage. This type of contract places a heavy burden on the tenant and is considered unfair.

In summary, an onerous contract is a contract that is unfair or burdensome for one party to fulfill. It is important to carefully review and understand the terms of a contract before signing it to avoid being bound by an onerous contract.

There’s someone I found on here with the username threeoutchange and if my understanding is correct that’s a reference to the debut album by a pretty cool 90s-00s Japanese band called Supercar. I geeked a little
