Spanish term

condición resolutoria

Spanish to English Law/Patents Law (general) Contracts
I searched in Kudoz and I found three "major" options. However, I am not sure if any of them really fit in my context. I will appreciate your help.

O.T.: "En los contratos bilaterales va implícita la condición resolutoria por falta de cumplimiento... la parte que ha cumplido puede exigir el cumplimiento del convenio..."

I would choose "resolutory condition" from Kudoz.

Thanks!

¡No hay porqué disculparse, Flavio! Respondimos casi juntos. :o)
agree María Eugenia Wachtendorff : CONDITION SUBSEQUENT only. There is a difference between the two concepts you are suggesting.

Muchas gracias Claudia. Saludos!
