German term or phrase: Verletzung über oder unter die Hälfte

Die Vertragsparteien verzichten auf Anfechtung des Vertrages wegen Verletzung über oder unter die Hälfte des wahren Werts.

impliziert "laesio enormis" auch die Verletzung ÜBER oder bezieht sich das nur auf "unter die Hälfte"?

contract-breach reduction in value over or under the 50% 'laesio enormis' threshold

Explanation:
Be careful about using Latin expressions which are unknown in Anglo-Am. contract law.

Also the Verkürzung - on mispresentation in contract or mis-statement in tort re the one-half true value of the *subject-matter of the sale* - needs to be exceeded: § 934 ABGB/AT Gen. Civil Code vs. § 351 a HGB/Comm. Code which takes the remedy away from traders who are supposed to know better.

1 hr confidence:

laesio enormis

Explanation:
Ich würde den Begriff dann noch in Klammer oder eine Fußnote erklären.

Der Satz könnte ungefähr so lauten: "The parties waive challenging the contract on the basis of laesio enormis (i.e. one party receives less and the other more than half of the actual value of the object of purchase)."
