Justifiable prevention of non-execution of contractual obligations

Abstract

The purpose and relevance of the present article leads us to state that force majeure or, more recently, the justifying impediment for non-execution of contractual obligations, represents one of the main causes of exemption from contractual liability. Being only an example of exemption provided by the legislator for the debtor of a civil obligation, in the absence of such regulation, the debtor would risk being unjustly responsible for facts or acts that exceed his own will or actions.
