Judgement for the case Photo Productions v Securicor

Table Of Contents

  • NB “death knell” for fundamental breach doctrine (doctrine that where a fundamental condition of the contract is breached, no exemption/limitation clauses, no matter how explicitly intended to apply, can reduce/extinguish the damages that would normally be owed).

  • Also exemption clause not unreasonable under UCTA since Defendant should have had insurance anyway, while a security team might have had more difficulty in finding insurance.
