On the peculiarities of unilateral termination of the contract

Gudkov А. I., Mishchenko V. I., Mishchenko A. V.

The article examines the question of the specifics of the termination of the contract unilaterally, the relevance of which has increased currently. This is largely due to the rather difficult financial and economic situation in Russia, which, in turn, contributes to the growth of unilateral refusals to fulfill obligations under various types of contracts. The authors note that the subjects of civil-legal relations often do not distinguish the difference between the termination of the contract unilaterally and the refusal to fulfill obligations by one party, and emphasize that it is possible to terminate the contract unilaterally in cases established by the legislator and subject to the relevant procedure.

Keywords:termination of the contract, unilateral termination of the contract, extrajudicial procedure of termination of contracts, material breach of contract.
