What is a Mutual Breach of Contract?
A breach of contract refers to the failure of one party to perform the obligations specified in a binding agreement with another party. When a contract is breached, the person at fault may face legal consequences. But not all breaches are the same.
A mutual breach occurs when both parties agree to breach the contract, typically due to a mutual understanding that the original agreement is no longer viable or beneficial. In these cases, both parties may agree on new terms or dissolve the contract altogether.
