material breach

A breach of contract that is significant enough to permit the aggrieved party to elect to treat the breach as total (rather than partial), thus excusing that party from further performance and affording it the right to sue for damages. [Cases: Contracts 317, 318. C.J.S. Contracts §§ 334, 450–455, 507, 541–544.]
