The rule that the party in breach of contract is placed to the extent that money can do it, in a situation as good as if the contract had been performed, is qualified by one more principle: which imposes on a plaintiff the duty to take all reasonable steps to mitigate the loss resulting from the breach and prevents him from claiming any part due to...
The doctrine of mitigation is governed by three rules. First, the complainant can not recover the loss resulting from the defendant’s default if the complainant could have avoided the loss by taking reasonable steps. Second, if the complainant avoids or mitigates the loss, he can not recover for such avoided loss even if he takes steps that are mor...
The rule is aimed at preventing the waste of limited resources in society, which forces the innocent party, the plaintiff, to find a substitute after the defendant’s breach. However, the rule also enables the defendant to commit an efficient breach of contract, where the defendant deliberately would break his contractual relationship for a better o...
A duty is imposed upon the plaintiff to take reasonable steps to mitigate the loss or damages. His position is similar to that of a plaintiff guilty of contributory negligence. In St Albans city and district council v Intl Computers Ltd,‘I’ supplied a computer system to ‘S’, a local authority, to be used in administering the collection of its commu...
The contract’s obligation to minimize damages can be removed by an express clause. In Ralli Bros Ltd v Firm Bhagwan Das Parmeshri Das,‘P’ should have resold the goods that ‘D’ refused in May, soon afterwards as the market failed, but unreasonably waited until November. ‘P’ was deemed to be protected by a clause in the contract authorizing him to re...
The rule of mitigation must be applied with discretion. A man who has already misplaced himself by breaking his contract has no right to impose new and extraordinary duties on the aggrieved party. That party can be expected to use the only ordinary and reasonable diligence there is much less to be expected to warrant success where the result of dil...
The plaintiff can recover expenses or further loss incurred by him in taking reasonable steps to mitigate his loss resulting from the defendant’s breach, even when the mitigating steps were unsuccessful or had led to greater loss. The plaintiff may recover the cost of his reasonable attempt to extricate himself from the position in which he was pla...
Where the complainant has accepted an anticipatory repudiation, e.g. has initiated an action for damages, it is his duty to mitigate the damage immediately if a reasonable opportunity arises. If the opportunity is lost, the defendant is entitled to assess the damage at the time the opportunity occurred. However, if the plaintiff does not accept the...
Although the duty to mitigate is that of the complainant, the burden of proof is on the defendant to show that the complainant has failed to take reasonable steps to mitigate his loss that the complainant has the means at his disposal and has not taken steps to use the means. The burden of proving that the loss of the plaintiff has been reduced or ...
The law has been stated to this in the USA. The measure of damage to the non-defaulting party will be measured as if the party has made reasonable efforts to avoid the losses resulting from the default. Some courts have stated doctrine as a duty owed by the innocent party, i.e., a duty to minimize damage. However, on analysis, it is clear that in c...
