unconscionable

Read a random definition: continuous-operations clause

A quick definition of unconscionable:

Term: unconscionable

Definition: Unconscionable means something is very unfair and unjust. It is often used to describe contracts that have extremely unfair terms. If a court finds a contract to be unconscionable, it cannot be enforced. It is like a rule that says, "This is so wrong that we can't let it happen."

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Unconscionable means something that is so unfair or unjust that it shocks the conscience. It can also refer to someone who is unscrupulous and lacks a conscience. In contract law, it is used to describe contracts that have grossly oppressive and unfair terms. If a court finds a contract unconscionable, it cannot be enforced.

1. A landlord who raises the rent by 500% without any notice or reason is acting unconscionably.

2. A company that sells a product with hidden fees and charges that were not disclosed to the customer is engaging in unconscionable business practices.

3. A contract that requires a person to give up all legal rights and protections in exchange for a small amount of money is an example of an unconscionable contract.

These examples illustrate how unconscionable behavior or contracts can be extremely unfair and unjust. They take advantage of people who may not have the resources or knowledge to protect themselves. Courts will not enforce contracts that are unconscionable because they violate basic principles of fairness and justice.
