- THE DOCTRINE OF PROMISSORY ESTOPPEL
- LONDON, 1939. THE CLAIMANT HAS JUST LET A PROPERTY: HIGH TREES HOUSE
- EVERYONE IS AWAY FIGHTING THE WAR AND I CAN'T FIND EHOUGH TENANTS FOR THE BUILDING I LEASE. HOWEVER WILL I PAY THE RENT?
- DUE TO CIRCUMSTANCES, YOU ONLY NEED TO PAY HALF THE LEASE
- 1945: THE WAR ENDS AND THE FLATS ARE FULL. THE CLAIMANT DEMANDS FULL RENT FOR THE PAST TWO QUARTERS: THE AGREEMENT WAS ONLY TEMPORARY
- FULL RENT SHOULD BE PAID FOR THESE PAST TWO QUARTERS BUT NOT FOR THE WHOLE WAR: IT WOULD BE INEQUITABLE.
- ..IF A PARTY PROMISES NOT TO ENFORCE A RIGHT THEY ARE ESTOPPED FROM ENFORCING THIS LATER IF OTHER PARTY HAS RELIED ON THE PROMISE AND IT WOULD BE INEQUITABLE TO DO SO. HOWEVER, CONDITIONS APPLY...
