Sometimes a breach of a term gives that option to the aggrieved party because it is of a fundamental character going to the root of the contract, sometimes it gives that option because the parties have chosen to stipulate that it shall have that effect.\u201d<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u201cThe more unreasonable the result the more unlikely it is that the parties can have intended it, and if they do intend it the more necessary it is that they shall make that intention abundantly clear.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Lord Wilberforce (dissenting)<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Term or condition?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Appeal should be allowed because clause 7(b) is a condition not merely a term.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u201cTo call the clause arbitrary, capricious or fantastic, or to introduce as a test of its validity the ubiquitous reasonable man (I do not know whether he is English or German) is to assume, contrary to the evidence, that both parties to this contract adopted a standard of easygoing tolerance rather than one of aggressive, insistent punctuality and efficiency. This is not an assumption I am prepared to make, nor do I think myself entitled to impose the former standard upon the parties if their words indicate, as they plainly do, the latter.\u201d<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u201cI note finally, that the result of treating the clause, so careful and specific in its requirements, as a term is, in effect, to deprive the appellants of any remedy in respect of admitted and by no means minimal breaches. The arbitrator\u2019s finding that these breaches were not \u201cmaterial\u201d was not, in my opinion, justified in law in the face of the parties\u2019 own characterisation of them in their document: indeed the fact that he was able to do so, and so leave the appellants without remedy, argues strongly that the legal basis of his finding \u2013 that clause 7(b) was merely a term \u2013 is unsound.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Legal Principles and Key Points Facts of the Case Issues Held by House of Lords Lord Reid Definition of condition Lord
