===Waiver chains=== | |||
You will see deep in the [[boilerplate]] confections like this: | |||
{{quote|“Any waiver of any breach of this agreement shall not be deemed to operate as a waiver of any ''subsequent'' breach thereof.”}} | |||
You know what the JC thinks about [[I never said you couldn’t|contractual denials of things no-one was asserting in the first place]]: they are a waste of trees. Is this, as it seems, such a waste of trees, or are waivers some kind of magical force-field of contractual energy, that spark and fizz and o’er-leap logical gates, like pole-vaulting crabs — that one waiver could trigger a ''chain'' of waivers, snaking into the distance, or mushrooming exponentially into a violent litigatory fireball? | |||
It has been a while since our contract law lectures, but, readers, we don’t remember the golden thread of precedent that led down this particular alley. | |||
