ACOM/49/2005 · Contractual Waiver of Consequential Damages vs. Defective Product Claims (Cour de Justice (Cour civile))

Synthèse Legislator

Généré par l'IA

The court considered whether a party's contractual waiver of claims for consequential damages, including lost profits, barred recovery for damages arising from a defective product, even where the seller allegedly knew of the defect and misrepresented its quality. The court reasoned that a contractual limitation on consequential damages is generally enforceable unless the party seeking to enforce it acted with gross negligence or willful and wanton misconduct, or if the limitation is unconscionable; in this case, the broad language of the waiver clearly encompassed lost profits, and the evidence did not conclusively establish the seller's requisite knowledge or intent to deceive necessary to void the waiver, thus affirming the exclusion of consequential damages.

Regeste Legislator

Officiel

CIRCONSTANCE EXCEPTIONNELLE; ELIMINATION; UNIVERSITE; ETUDIANT | Graves problèmes de santé et familiaux du recourant depuis 1999 déjà. Vu leurs gravité et effets, la faculté ne pouvait refuser de mettre le recourant au bénéfice de circonstances exceptionnelles. L'octroi antérieur des dérogations n'est pas un motif suffisant pour refuser l'octroi d'une ultime tentative à cet étudiant. Recours admis avec fixation toutefois d'un ultime délai pour se présenter aux examens. | RU.22 al.2
