Interpreter Differential Clause Samples
The Interpreter Differential clause defines how discrepancies in interpretation between different language versions of a contract are resolved. Typically, this clause specifies which language version prevails in the event of a conflict, ensuring that all parties understand which text is authoritative. For example, in bilingual contracts, the English version may be designated as the controlling document if inconsistencies arise. This clause's core function is to prevent misunderstandings and legal disputes by clearly establishing a hierarchy among language versions, thereby ensuring clarity and certainty in contractual obligations.
