Question
A breach of contract can be of ____ breach.
A. Discharged
B. Illegal
C. Void
D. None of these
Answer
A
Explanation:
A breach of contract occurs when one party fails to perform their obligations under the contract. The term “discharged breach” may refer to a breach that leads to the discharge of the contract, meaning the non-breaching party is released from further obligations. In this context, option A (discharged) aligns with the idea that a breach can result in the contract being terminated or discharged. Option B (illegal) is incorrect, as illegality refers to the contract’s formation, not the breach. Option C (void) is incorrect, as a void contract lacks legal effect from the start, not due to a breach. Option D is incorrect, as “discharged” is a relevant term in breach scenarios. The answer “A” is as provided in the attachment.
