There are several types of contract breaches, including
- Minor breach – One party fails to perform part of the contract but does not (1) breach the entire agreement and (2) prevent the parties from fulfilling their remaining contractual obligations. A minor breach may not entitle the injured party to sue for damages if they are minor and make a lawsuit impractical.
- Material breach – A serious violation that (1) adversely affects the parties, (2) prevents them from fulfilling their obligations, and (3) undermines the entire agreement. The non-breaching party is permitted to stop performing its contractual obligations and sue for damages.
- Anticipatory breach – One party to a contract indicates through words or actions that it cannot fulfill its contractual obligations. The non-breaching party must mitigate its losses and not incur additional expenses. Otherwise, that party may not be able to recover any additionally incurred damages.
