| 单词 | Time fixed for performance |
| 释义 | 定出履行的時間 The time at which contractual obligations must be fulfilled. The time fixed for performance under a contract is decided by reference to the intention of the parties as expressed in the contract. Where there is a contractual term as to the time of performance, its effect is primarily a matter of construction: Hang Seng Finance Ltd v Lin Kwok Man [1991] 2 HKC 613. Generally, where a contract does not specify the time of performance, the obligation in question must be performed within a ‘reasonable’ time: British Steel Corp v Cleveland Bridge and Engineering Co Ltd [1984] 1 All ER 504; Sale of Goods Ordinance (Cap 26) s 31(2). What constitutes a reasonable time is a question of fact to be determined at the time when the performance is alleged to be due rather than at the moment of contractual formation and the time fixed must be fair to both parties. See also Anticipatory breach; Breach; Performance; Time stipulation. 必須履行合約義務的時間。合約項下所定出的履行時間以合約雙方在合約上明訂的意願為準。如就履行的時間有合約上的條款，則其施行主要是釋義的問題：Hang Seng Finance Ltd v Lin Kwok Man [1991] 2 HKC 613。概括而言，凡合約沒有指定履行的時間者，有關的義務必須在「合理」時間內履行：British Steel Corp v Cleveland Bridge and Engineering Co Ltd [1984] 1 All ER 504; 《貨品售賣條例》(第26章)第31(2)條。甚麼構成合理時間屬事實問題，並因應指稱應作出履行的時間的情況，而非合約訂定的時間，且定出的履行時間必須對雙方公平。另見 Anticipatory breach; Breach; Performance; Time stipulation。 |
