      Question

      Under the Specific Relief Act, 1963, specific

      performance can be refused by the court when:
      A The plaintiff is in breach of their obligations Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B The contract involves personal services Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C The court cannot supervise the execution of the decree Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Any of A, B, or C above Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E The contract is for sale of goods Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Section 14 lists grounds for refusing specific performance: (1) if the plaintiff is in breach of an essential term, (2) for contracts of personal service, (3) if supervision would be required, (4) if the consideration is grossly disproportionate, and (5) other statutory grounds. These are discretionary grounds, and the court may still grant relief if circumstances warrant. [Citation: Sections 11-14, Specific Relief Act, 1963]
