Contractual Notice by Electronic Means and Course of Performance
Sintesi Legislator
Generato dall'IAA dispute arose concerning the application of a statutory requirement for written notice of breach to a contract that incorporated prior agreements and modifications, where the notice was sent by an electronic method not explicitly authorized but used by the parties in previous dealings. The court reasoned that the contract's broad definition of "written notice" and the established course of performance between the parties, evidenced by prior electronic communications, demonstrated a mutual intent to accept the electronic transmission as sufficient written notice, thus satisfying the contractual condition despite the lack of explicit authorization for that specific method in the contract text.
