| 单词 | Discharge by performance |
| 释义 | 藉履行解除 Parties to a contract normally discharge their liabilities under the contract by performance of their promises which are the contractual obligations. The performance has to be precise in accordance with the promises made: Cutter v Powell (1795) 6 TR 320, 101 ER 573. However, the courts do ignore trivial deviations (de minimus non curat): Shipton, Anderson & Co v Weil Brothers & Co [1912] 1 KB 574. In case of joint liability, the performance of one discharges the obligations of others: Cheng Hang Chu & Ors v China Treasures Enterprise Ltd [2000] 2 HKC 814. Where the contract is for the provision of services, a payment for part performance may be claimed where the contract is divisible and the services provided constitute the fulfilment of a part; under the doctrine of substantial performance; where complete performance was prevented by the actions of the other party; or where the other party has accepted the part performance. See also Discharge; Divisible contract; Performance; Substantial performance. 合約各方一般憑藉履行他們的承諾解除各方合約項下的合約責任。履行承諾時須確實按照所作出的承諾行事：Cutter v Powell (1795) 6 TR 320, 101 ER 573。但法庭不會理會輕微的偏差（法律不問鎖事）：Shipton, Anderson & Co v Weil Brothers & Co [1912] 1 KB 574。就共有法律責任而言，一方履行責任即可解除另一方的責任：Cheng Hang Chu & Ors v China Treasures Enterprise Ltd [2000] 2 HKC 814。就提供服務的合約而言，如屬可分割合約及所提供的服務構成部份履行；如按照實質履行的原則；如因另一方的行動而不能完成履行，或如另一方已接受部份履行，則可就部分履行申索償付。另見 Discharge; Divisible contract; Performance; Substantial performance。 |
