A breach of contract is a failure by one party to perform any obligation under a contract or an indication of intent not to observe an obligation. In every case, the innocent party is entitled to claim damages to compensate for loss. Certain other circumstances will, in addition, allow the innocent party to be excused from further performance under the contract.
Breach can take two forms: actual breach and anticipatory breach.
