Implied terms
Although English law prides itself on providing certainty to contractual parties through strict interpretation of the terms agreed, aviation and defence lawyers should nevertheless be aware of various terms that can be implied into their agreements.
Following on from recent sessions on force majeure and frustration of contracts, good faith, interpreting agreements and limitation of liability we’ll explore the complex topic of implied terms and what it means for the aviation and defence sectors, providing an overview of:
- Why implied terms matter in aviation and defence?
- Statutory and common law implied terms
- Custom and practice, course of dealing, and good faith implied terms
- Implied terms about intellectual property
- Drafting to reduce the impact of implied terms
In addition to a high level business summary overview, we’ll delve into the legal detail that makes this such an interesting and important topic.
