Law/Patents - Transport / Transportation / Shipping / Termination clause
French term or phrase: Sans anomalies persistantes
Hi,

This phrase appears in a termination clause at the end of a Cahier des Charges Transport (Type des produits à température négative). Here's how it appears in the French.


Conditions de dénonciation

Sans anomalies persistantes :

Le Donneur d’ordres et le transporteur se réservent le droit de rompre le contrat de façon unilatérale et sans motif particulier dans un délai de préavis raisonnable de 3 mois.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Jack

in the absence of continuing fault
Explanation:
This seems to be a "no fault" clause to enable termination without needing to prove, in this case, continuing fault. So, the contractor may have been warned once and dealt with the problem and yet still have their contract terminated.

agree  SafeTex: or 'continual fault(s)' but the idea is fine

  -> Thanks SafeTex. No, I think "continual" would be wrong. Continual would be recurring fault(s), rather than persistent fault. "Continuing" would be more appropriate, for a contract term, than "persistent" because it is broader and more value-neutral.
