| 单词 | Failure of consideration |
| 释义 | 不履行代價 A breach of contract where a party to a contract fails or defaults to perform his or her contractual obligations at the time stipulated for performance; failure of consideration could be total or partial. Claiming restitution in case of failure of consideration, the failure has to be total: Euro-America Insurance Ltd v Speedbird Tours Ltd [1993] 2 HKC 552 (HC). Total failure of consideration amounts to a defence to an action upon bill of exchange or promissory note: Multi-Asia International Holding Ltd v Lawrence Chan Digital Ltd (HCA 524/99, HCA 11164/99, unreported). The court is ready to admit extrinsic evidence for the purpose of rebutting that considerations stated have been given in a written instrument: BCCI Finance International Ltd v Aftab Ahmed & Ors [1991] 1 HKC 375 (HC). See also Consideration; Restitution; Unjust factor. 違約，當合約一方未能或不能於指定履行的時間履行其合約上的義務；可以是整體或局部的不履行合約。就不履行代價而申索復原而言，有關的不履行必須屬全面性的：Euro-America Insurance Ltd v Speedbird Tours Ltd [1993] 2 HKC 552（高等法院）。在有關匯票或承付票的訴訟中，完全的不履行代價相當於免責辯護：Multi-Asia International Holding Ltd v Lawrence Chan Digital Ltd（高院民事訴訟1999年第524號，高院民事訴訟1999年第11164號，未經彙報）。法院樂意為反駁已在有關書面文書給定列明的代價而接納外在證據：BCCI Finance International Ltd v Aftab Ahmed & Ors [1991] 1 HKC 375 （高等法院）。另見 Consideration; Restitution; Unjust factor。 |
