A quick definition of lawful condition:
A lawful condition is something that must happen before a promise or obligation can be fulfilled. For example, if someone promises to pay for a car repair, the condition is that the car must actually be repaired. There are different types of conditions, such as ones that require an action to be taken or ones that forbid an action. Some conditions are explicitly stated in a contract or agreement, while others are implied by law. A condition can also refer to a physical characteristic of property or a state of being.A more thorough explanation:
LAWFUL CONDITION
A lawful condition is an uncertain event that determines the existence or extent of an obligation or liability in a contract. It can be a future act or event that triggers or negates a duty to perform a promised action. A lawful condition can be fulfilled without violating the law.
- If Jones promises to pay Smith $500 for repairing a car, Smith's failure to repair the car (an implied or constructive condition) relieves Jones of the promise to pay.
- An insurance company promises to pay £10,000 to an insured person if his house is destroyed by fire; the destruction of the house by fire is a condition of the insurer's promise to pay, but neither party promises to burn the house.

In this case, Jones promised to pay Smith for repairing a car, but the condition of the car being repaired was not fulfilled, so Jones is not obligated to pay. The second example shows how a lawful condition can be a part of an insurance contract, where the destruction of the house by fire is a condition for the insurer's promise to pay. If the condition is fulfilled
