📢 Supreme Court Highlights the Importance of Readiness & Willingness in Specific Performance Cases The Supreme Court recently upheld a High Court ruling that denied specific relief to a plaintiff due to the failure to prove readiness and willingness to perform the contract. 🛑 Key Takeaways: ✅ The plaintiff must not only claim readiness and willingness but must also present oral and documentary evidence to show financial capacity and adherence to contract terms. ✅ Readiness refers to the financial ability to perform, while willingness relates to the plaintiff’s conduct. ✅ Both elements are essential to securing a decree for specific performance. In this case, the plaintiff sought specific performance of a sale agreement, alleging the respondent failed to uphold the contract after receiving earnest money. The Trial Court ruled in favor of the plaintiff, but the High Court reversed the decision, citing a lack of proof on the plaintiff's part. The Supreme Court affirmed this view, emphasizing the necessity of evidentiary support. #SupremeCourt #LegalUpdates #ContractLaw #SpecificPerformance #ReadinessAndWillingness #LegalInsights
