If a contract is substantially performed, the terms are entirely carried out and there is no right to repudiate the contract, that is, to reject it. If a contract partly performed, a breach of condition is committed. However, if the innocent party accepts the partial performance, a claim to remuneration may be raised in a court. If there is defective performance, for example a condition is breached, the innocent party may have the right to repudiate the contract and treat it as terminated once he or she has communicated acceptance of the breach of contract.
