Contract Type FiledAugust 7th, 2013The seller and purchaser in this matter entered into an instalment sale agreement that included a lease component. When the seller purported to cancel the agreement because of the purchaser’s default, his notice was found to be invalid because, amongst other things, the notice granted the purchaser 7 days in which to rectify the breach and not 30 days, as required in the written agreement.
