breach of contract - a failure, without legally sufficient excuse, of one party to fulfill the requirements of a contract. A breach by one party may lead to an award of money damages by a court or arbitrator. Alternatively, a breaching party may be ordered to perform the act they have refused to do, such as transfer title to property. This form of remedy is called specific performance. See also contract, damages, and specific performance
