497: Listen and Learn -- Incidental, Reliance, and Restitution Damages (Contracts)
Welcome back to the Law School Toolbox podcast! Today, we're expanding on the topic of legal remedies for breach of contract, which we started covering in Episode 354. This time we look at the rules governing incidental, reliance, and restitution damages and apply the law to two fact patterns.
In this episode we discuss:
- The rules governing:
- Incidental damages
- Reliance damages
- Restitution damages
- An analysis of two hypothetical scenarios
