[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ok, the question here is if you can walk away if the school is able to fill the slot with a kid from the waiting list? Can anyone explain in plain English what are the economic damages of that situation? [/quote] DP. If your contract says you cannot walk away then one can't -- and the courts consistently enforce breach of contract. [/quote] Are you familiar with the duty to mitigate damages?[/quote] You’re welcome to make all sorts of arguments that justify breaching the contract. But when judges and juries get involved, and hear all the counter arguments, you might lose. This is why cases often settle with compromise before going to trial.[/quote]
