Timely Notification In Contracts

Summary

Timely notification and correction of defects in contract law are supported by common law principles like the duty to mitigate losses, as seen in Hadley v Baxendale (1854). Statute laws such as the Sale of Goods Act 1979 and the Consumer Rights Act 2015 also emphasize these principles. Case law, including Hong Kong Fir Shipping Co Ltd v Kawasaki Kisen Kaisha Ltd (1962), highlights the significance of timely actions. However, Costain Ltd v Bechtel Ltd (2005) does not specifically address this issue, focusing instead on contractual obligations in construction projects. For specific concerns, consider relevant cases and statutes.
