Abstract

The case of Ocean Tramp Tankers Corp. v. V/O Sovfracht addresses the doctrine of contract frustration. In his conclusions, Lord Denning rejected a long established aspect of contract frustration law and shed new light on how to view other aspects of the law. He reasoned out a solution to the challenge that has been left "to the lawyers to figure out."
