Modern business cannot be imagined without contractual relationships. But in the process of doing business, sometimes it becomes necessary to terminate previously concluded contracts, including work contracts. Termination of contracts must be carried out within the framework of the law.
Instructions
Step 1
Carefully study chapter 37 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation. It describes the general requirements for a work contract. So a work contract is concluded in cases when it is necessary to perform some work or make some thing and give the result to the customer. The specificity of this agreement affects the ways of its termination.
Step 2
If the work contract has become uninteresting for you and your partner, terminate it by mutual agreement. To do this, send a letter to the partner with a letter of termination and sign the corresponding agreement. In the letter, indicate not only the number of the contract to be terminated, but also the reason for the termination of relations. In the agreement, indicate the details of the invalid document, the date of termination. Pay attention to methods and procedures for terminating commitments.
Step 3
If the contract is no longer necessary for you alone, terminate it unilaterally. If you are a customer, then act within the framework of Article 717 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation. Refuse to perform the contract at any time before the delivery of the result. In this case, reimburse the contractor for the loss caused by the termination of the contractual relationship. Pay part of the contractual amount in proportion to the amount of work performed. Please note that in this way you can terminate the contract only if it is not otherwise stipulated in it.
Step 4
If your partner does not fulfill the terms of the work contract, but does not want to terminate it, go to court. A positive court decision is guaranteed to you if you prove the fact of default by your counterparty. For example, the customer did not transfer the payment amount on time.
Step 5
And the last thing: in order to avoid misunderstandings, the procedure for terminating the contract must be spelled out in the contract itself. To do this, in advance, before signing it, think over and include the appropriate points.
