Margarida Rego,  No right to perform a contract?

Summary: This thesis offers an alternative outlook on the decision of a contractual party to reject the benefit of the contract when he is no longer interested in the other party’s performance. It is an attempt to justify such course of action by challenging the proposition that one is always entitled to perform one’s own contractual promises. This shall be done in the context of the controversial decision of the House of Lords in White & Carter (Councils) v McGregor [1962] AC 413.

Happy Reading,
