What Counts as a Breach in California?
A breach happens when a party fails to perform, or performs late, poorly, or not at all.
Material breach
Material breach hits the core benefit; minor breach allows recovery but performance may continue.
Statute of limitations (CA): Written contracts = 4 yrs; oral = 2 yrs. Early review protects leverage.
