Webinar Parker Poe - Navigating Commercial Contracts in the Face of COVID-19

Ended

Event ended.

The pandemic has already caused massive business disruptions that are affecting the rights and obligations of all parties involved in a wide variety of commercial contracts. In this webinar, we will discuss whether and under what circumstances a party may have the right to delay, alter, or cancel its performance obligations under a commercial contract as a result of the impacts of COVID-19 and related governmental closure and stay-at-home orders.

 

We will address: 

• Force majeure contract clauses

• Common law defenses of impossibility and frustration of purpose

• Rights of a seller of goods under UCC Section 2-615,
  Excuse by Failure of Presupposed Conditions

• What we have learned and the effect on future contracts
