me either The other party can apply to the courts to stop you from breaking the contract and force you to buy the house. If you then still decide not to buy the house then the court can punish you for not doing what the court has told you to AND the other side can claim damages.
If this were the case you may still end up buying the house (the court told you to as punishment) and paying damages.
Ah ok - that makes more sense! Thanks Dog :-)

All FUARU needed was to read....and comprehend....Aesops fables. Bit like the Force contract. They either didn't read it, or didn't comprehend it. Orrrrr... their version of Sir Humphrey "forgot" to mention that part when briefing them on the "cull" (what delightful terminology they employ).
Perhaps watching The Euro Sausage episode on Yes Minister would give then greater clarity of mind than reading Aesop. Perhaps not![]()
The long sobs of autumn's violins wound my heart with a monotonous languor
I'm not a lawyer either, but I did study commercial law at Uni.
I believe, and I'm happy for any of our learned colleagues to elaborate further, that the Force will be seeking an injunction (orders directing a party NOT to do something, like axe the Force), or an award of specific performance (an order directing the breaching party to abide with the terms of the contract - i.e keep the Force in the comp as agreed in the Alliance Agreement).
There has been an overall disregard of this in the eastern states press and definitely by the ARU. What happens when the court awards specific performance to the Force and Rebels? Which protected specie gets the chop?

Australia’s Super Rugby limbo is set to drag on, with the Force unlikely to be meeting with the ARU on Thursday, despite the club earmarking a request last week.
The Force requested a meeting with the ARU, announcing their move on a statement last Friday night, slating Thursday April 27 as the date for the two parties to 'discuss a possible resolution' but it seems the two couldn’t agree on the details.
There is still the possibility of a phone hookup, but with no developments late on Wednesday night, even that seems unlikely.
With possible legal threats on the horizon from both the Force and the Rebels, the decision doesn’t look to be coming any time soon.
The sticking point with the WA franchise, according to that statement, is that under ‘current arrangements’ the Force is entitled to a Super Rugby spot until December 30 2020.
SANZAAR has an executive meeting on May 10 but it is believed there is no deadline for the ARU to bring a final decision to that meeting, after agreeing in principle to a 15-team competition earlier this year.
South Africa is far off making a call on which of its two teams will be set for the axe, with its process believed to be working towards a resolution around the end of June.
So the ARU have battened down the hatches and stalling for time, which means perhaps they're struggling to consolidate all the Board members. Bet there's some great bitch fights going on in there! Surely they should be thinking on some proactive/positive communication between all parties to come together and nut out a solution? But no.......... it's Wayne's World. Seems they've all run away to their hidey holes until Mummy makes it go away.
It just gets worse and worse as the days tick on. There can be no winners in any of this; only losers.

I wonder if, even if we win and the Force is retained, there won't be a near-terminal breakdown of relationship with the ARU which will mean we're screwed of ever getting an even break.
Still, positive waves, eh?
Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon
From a Wayne smith article it seems like the ARU aren't even talking internally, some directors haven't been contacted in over a week.
