L5M3 Exam Dumps : Managing Contractual Risk

Explanation

The correct answers are 1 and 3. The other options are false; Mediation does not produce legal precedents- only litigation can do this. Mediation is a cheap dispute resolution option (much cheaper than arbitration or litigation) and the third party has no authority on the matter- they are there as a facilitator of dialogue, not to make a judgement. For more information on mediation see p.74

Explanation

If you're not happy with the decision of an adjudication you can appeal the decision. So option 2 is correct. If the appeal is turned down then unfortunately there's not much more you can do as adjudication is binding and legally enforceable. See p. 143 for more info on adjudication

Explanation

This is a Fundamental Breach. Fundamental Breach and Major Breach are very similar- they're both really bad and can lead to damages and the termination of the contract. The difference is that a Fundamental Breach is so bad that it goes to the root of the contract - a breach so bad that the contract is basically worthless. For example if you make a contract with a supplier to have potatoes delivered but it turns out they don't sell potatoes, only apples, and they keep sending you apples instead of potatoes. This would be a fundamental breach because its something so fundamental to the contract that there's no point in the contract existing if there's a breach like this. Condition Breach and Essence Breach are made up words- they don't exist. P.44
