1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:01,920
But sometimes money isn't 
enough, right? 

2
00:00:01,920 --> 00:00:03,440
That's where equitable remedies 
come in. 

3
00:00:03,440 --> 00:00:05,600
Exactly. 
Ordering parties to do or not do

4
00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:06,960
something. 
Like specific. 

5
00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:10,280
Performance The main 1A court 
order forcing a party to 

6
00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:13,520
actually perform their promise 
under the contract, not money, 

7
00:00:13,760 --> 00:00:16,160
the actual action. 
But it's limited, right? 

8
00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:18,080
Not for every breach. 
Very limited. 

9
00:00:18,080 --> 00:00:19,560
Most common for real estate. 
Why? 

10
00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:21,480
Because land is considered 
unique. 

11
00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:24,400
Money isn't an adequate 
substitute for that specific 

12
00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:27,080
piece of property. 
And unique goods like art. 

13
00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:28,920
Yes, unique goods too. 
one-of-a-kind. 

14
00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:30,320
Art. 
Rare antique peeks. 

15
00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:32,759
Custom machinery where money 
can't buy an adequate 

16
00:00:32,759 --> 00:00:34,560
replacement. 
Where is it not usually 

17
00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:36,040
applicable? 
And really not for ordinary 

18
00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:37,400
goods. 
Money works fine there. 

19
00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:40,640
You can buy substitutes and 
crucially, typically not for 

20
00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:43,280
services contracts. 
Because of involuntary servitude

21
00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:45,600
concerns. 13th Amendment. 
Exactly. 

22
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:48,360
You can't force someone to 
perform personal services, but 

23
00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:51,440
the exception is negative 
specific performance. 

24
00:00:51,480 --> 00:00:53,280
Stopping them from working for a
competitor. 

25
00:00:53,480 --> 00:00:56,440
Right, not forcing them to work 
for you, but enforcing the part 

26
00:00:56,440 --> 00:00:58,640
of the contract that says they 
won't work for someone else.
