Cloth. $60. * In contract law there are two types of mistake as determined by Savigny. The first, echt, represents those cases in which consent exists, but the contract is impeachable due to the determination of mistake. This work examines the second class of mistake in contract, unecht, "...in which real consent is lacking, resulting in the nullity of the contract, while the mistake is an accompanying feature" (Preface). This class of mistake is traced from Roman law to common law and modern civil law. Originally published as Volume XXIII, Number 2 in Columbia's series, Studies in History, Economics and Public Law.
Download or read book Mistakes in Contract Law written by Catharine MacMillan and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2010-01-15 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is a matter of some difficulty for the English lawyer to predict the effect of a misapprehension upon the formation of a contract. The common law doctrine of mistake is a confused one, with contradictory theoretical underpinnings and seemingly irreconcilable cases. This book explains the common law doctrine through an examination of the historical development of the doctrine in English law. Beginning with an overview of contractual mistakes in Roman law, the book examines how theories of mistake were received at various points into English contract law from Roman and civil law sources. These transplants, made for pragmatic rather than principled reasons, combined in an uneasy manner with the pre-existing English contract law. The book also examines the substantive changes brought about in contractual mistake by the Judicature Act 1873 and the fusion of law and equity. Through its historical examination of mistake in contract law, the book provides not only insights into the nature of innovation and continuity within the common law but also the fate of legal transplants.

Book excerpt: In Quoine Pte Ltd v B2C2 Ltd [2020] SGCA(I) 2, the Singapore Court of Appeal had the opportunity to set out how the traditional contract law doctrine of unilateral mistake would apply to disputes in which the contracting process has been automated, in the context of a number of cryptocurrency trades. It concluded that when assessing the state of knowledge that is to be attributed to the parties at the time of a contract made by way of deterministic algorithms, the relevant inquiry cannot be directed at the parties themselves but rather, working backwards from the output that emanated from the programs, must be directed at the programmers. This paper sets out the problems with the court's conclusion.
Download or read book An Economic Perspective on the Doctrine of Unilateral Mistake in English Contract Law written by Qi Zhou and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The key economic issues in implementing the law of unilateral mistake are twofold. First, it should avoid misallocation of resources; second, it ought to create a sufficient incentive for acquisition of information. However, the rule of unilateral mistake in English contract law does not serve these economic goals satisfactorily. The existing law and economics literature deals extensively with how to achieve these ends by designing the legal standards for a unilateral mistake which can nullify the contract, with little discussion of the function of legal remedy. This paper offers a remedy-based approach and argues that it has economic advantages over the current law.
