Hoenig v Isaacs [1952] 2 All ER 176

Question 1

How does *Hoenig v Isaacs* distinguish between substantial and full performance in service contracts?

11:18 ✓✓

A It holds that only full performance entitles the defendant to any payment, regardless of minor omissions.

B It allows contractors to claim the full price if the omissions are cosmetic, even if critical elements are missing.

C It permits recovery of the contract price minus cost of cure when omissions are minor and the work is otherwise complete. ✓

11:18 ✓✓

✅ Correct!
The case draws a line between material breach and trivial defects. If the core obligation is fulfilled, the innocent party cannot reject but must pay less the cost of remedying defects. This prevents unjust enrichment and supports commercial efficiency.

11:18 ✓✓

Misrepresentation

Question 2

Under s.2(1) of the Misrepresentation Act 1967, what must the claimant prove to establish a claim for negligent misrepresentation?

11:18 ✓✓

A That the representor owed a duty of care and that the statement fell below the standard of a reasonable person.

B That the representor made a false statement without reasonable grounds for believing it was true. ✓

C That the representor intended to deceive the claimant or was reckless as to the truth.

11:18 ✓✓

✅ Correct!
Section 2(1) creates a statutory claim: false statement without reasonable grounds. The burden shifts to the defendant to prove reasonable belief. Option A describes common law negligence, not s.2(1). Option C describes fraud.

11:18 ✓✓

Consumer Rights Act 2015 s.62(1)

Question 3

Under s.62(1) of the Consumer Rights Act 2015, when is a term considered unfair?

11:18 ✓✓

A Whenever it disadvantages the consumer in any way.

B If it causes a significant imbalance in the parties' rights to the consumer’s detriment and is contrary to good faith. ✓

C Only if it was not included in the initial written contract.

11:18 ✓✓

✅ Correct!
Section 62(1) defines unfairness as a significant imbalance in rights, to the consumer’s detriment, contrary to good faith. Exempt terms include price and main subject matter if transparent.
