Interpretation of Contracts (Catherine Mitchell)

Interpretation of Contracts (Catherine Mitchell)
Posted date: 05/08/2020

Many contract disputes ultimately turn upon the meaning attributed to contractual documents by judges. Lord Hoffman’s judgment in Investors Compensation Scheme v West Bromwich Building Society included a modern restatement of the rules of interpretation to be applied by the courts which favoured a more contextual approach to contractual interpretation. This judgment has generated controversy within the legal profession and sparked academic debate on a previously neglected topic. This short book examines what contextual interpretation means, the arguments for and against contextual interpretation, and suggests ways in which the parties may be able to influence the interpretation methods applied to their agreement.
Examining case law, academic debate and the resurgence of interest in formalist contract interpretation in the US, this text identifies the controversial issues, explores the range of arguments and analyses possible future developments.
