Register / View: Contract Considerations Regarding Force Majeure in the COVID-19 Era

Across the globe, contracting parties are experiencing performance-related concerns resulting from unprecedented orders to shelter-in-place, closures of non-essential businesses, global travel restrictions, and social distancing/isolation policies that have been implemented in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, parties may be reviewing their existing contracts, especially the force majeure provisions, to determine whether performance obligations can be modified or cancelled in light of COVID-19. This program will provide an overview of force majeure provisions and how they may be utilized, as well as current force majeure litigation and other considerations for future contracts.
