Inactive Programs Clause Samples

Inactive Programs. International adoptions are contingent on the cooperation of foreign countries. The Client understands it is possible for a country-program to become backlogged, inactive or close due to variety of reasons, including without limitation changes in the foreign government’s policies on adoption, revision of U.S. or foreign adoption laws, or political instability. Closure or hiatus of programs may be declared by the foreign country or by the United States. The Client acknowledges that hiatus or closure of programs may be indefinite in nature and impossible to predict. The Client acknowledges such risks and understands that CAS reserves the right to suspend or terminate inactive programs, which may result in the termination of the Client’s pending adoption process.
