Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Grady's normal remedy in this case would be specific performance. This is because the subject matter of the contract (440 acres of land) is unique and cannot be easily substituted with damages. Therefore, the best way to fully compensate Grady for the breach would be to require Hollis to specifically perform the contract by selling the land as agreed.
