Force Majeure Clause in Light of COVID-19
Friday, April 24, 2020, 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM, ET
Presenter: Jennifer L. Villier, JD, CPA (inactive)
 
WHAT WE’LL COVER
 

Nestled among the boilerplate clauses, force majeure provisions have been scrutinized in recent weeks as contracting parties are unable to perform and seek contractual means to cancel their obligations. Join us as we analyze the force majeure clause and its relevance amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. We will cover:

  • What is force majeure?
  • What will determine whether you can assert force majeure (or fight it)?
  • Related contractual provisions that may relieve a party's contractual obligations
  • The impact of governing law on interpretation and enforceability
  • Description and scope of force majeure event, especially the examples and whether they are exhaustive vs. illustrative
  • Relevance of foreseeability and the duty to mitigate damages.
