Title: The Rise (and fall?) of implied duties of good faith in contractual performance in Australia
Related: University of New South Wales law journal, Vol. 25, Issue 1, p.99-123
Publisher: Law School, University of New South Wales
Date: 2002
Author/Creator: Carlin, Tyrone M
Description: The doctrine of an implied duty of good faith in contractual performance had been largely ignored until the 1990s, even with prominent factors in remolding the law of contract in Australia. The apparent infiltration of implied duties of good faith in contractual performance into the Australian law of contract are tracked along with the manner in which the implication of contractual terms requiring good faith in performance gained apparent legitimacy in Australia.
