Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The death or disability of a party to a contract would only discharge the contract if personal services requiring peculiar skill are involved. This is because the personal services cannot be performed by anyone else and the death or disability of the person would make it impossible to perform the contract. The payment of money or the painting of a house, for example, can be performed by someone else, and therefore would not discharge the contract.
