Case 1.

Mr Badar is a professional singer who had agreed with Mr Yousuf, the manager of Oman Opera House, to perform as first tenor during his marriage celebration. Badar agreed that he would attend rehearsals at least 5 days prior to commencement of the celebration. The contract is for three (3) days of performances. However, Badar became ill and could not attend the rehearsals. He only arrived two (2) days before the celebration, ready to perform.

Mr. Yousuf considered this as a breach of contract and terminated the agreement. Is it legal for Yousuf to cancel the contract?

Given the above case problem, answer all the following questions:

a. Identify and analyse each legal issue in relation to the relevant laws. Support your answers with relevant laws and regulations in Oman.

b. Provide advice to Mr. Badar and Mr. Yousuf.

Case 2: Ministry of Sports

The Ministry of Sports will host the horse racing event on 10th, 11th and 12th September 2018 in Muscat. As the horse racing would attract more crowds than usual, the Ministry of Sports contracted with Mabela Builders for them to build a new car park close to the horse race stadium where the horse racing will be performed. The new car park was to be completed by 8th September 2018. A deposit of RO 600,000 is payable by the Ministry of Sports before 8th June 2018 and the balance of 100,000 is payable on 8th September 2018.

Also, the Ministry of Sports decided that the seats in the horse racing stands need renewing before the horse racing take place. They therefore contracted with Seeb Seating Company for them to replace all the seats in stands A and B before the 8th September for a total cost of RO 300,000. Seeb Seating Company underestimated how long it would take them to replace all the seats and when they left the job on 8th September.
