THE RADIANT JUSTICE CHAMBERS, OBAFEMI AWOLOWO UNIVERSITY. LEGAL NUGGETS⚖️ FORCE MAJEURE KEY TAKEAWAYS • Force majeure is a clause that is included in contracts to remove liability for natural and unavoidable catastrophes. • It also encompasses human actions, such as armed conflict. • Questions about what is and is not " foreseeable " in a legal sense have been raised given the increased awareness of pandemics, asteroids, super-volcanoes, cyber threats, and nuclear warfare. • French law applies three tests for whether a force majeure defense is applicable— the event must be unforeseeable, external, and irresistible.
