Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Specific performance is not available in employment contracts, as it would amount to involuntary servitude. Therefore, Washington High cannot ask for Bartow to continue coaching for them for the remaining year of their contract. However, they may be able to pursue compensatory damages (B), an injunction (C), or liquidated damages (D) if their contract includes provisions for such remedies.
