Question

Explain what do you mean by Self-Induced Impossibility?

Answer 1

A contract may also become impossible to perform because of a deliberate or wilful act by one of the parties. In effect, this is a self-induced frustration. The conduct that makes performance impossible may occur either before or during performance.  Therefore, it can be difficult for the other party to decide whether he or she should proceed with the contract.
