force majeure
|
In civil law, force majeure applies to situations where the performance of a contract is substantially impossible, not merely something different from what was originally contemplated by the parties. In civil law systems, force majeure operates independently of party agreement, which means that it will protect an obligee even if the contract does not contain a force majeure clause. |
