GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
English term or phrase:proof of special damages
Selected answer:B. No proof is required
Entered by: Anna Maria Augustine (X)

22:15 Mar 3, 2007
English language (monolingual) [PRO]
Law/Patents - Law: Contract(s) / special damages
English term or phrase: proof of special damages
The sentence below seems to be almost a standard condition of some contracts.

***No proof of special damages shall be necessary for the enforcement of this Agreement.***

I wonder whether it means:
(a) there is no proof (=evidence) of special damages (= special losses suffered) to enforce this Agreement

or

(b) there is no proof (= request / motion / official letter claiming) of special damages (amount of money to be paid to cure the breach / loss / damage) that needs to be submitted so that this Agreement is enforceable.

or

(c) anything else?

I would appreciate your help.
