Here is an often cited concept raised in contract litigation – the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing:
“The implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing” embraces a pledge that neither party shall do anything which will have the effect of destroying or injuring the right of the other party to receive the fruits of the contract” ABN AMRO Bank, N.V. v. MBIA Inc., 2011 N.Y. Slip Op 5542, 11-12 (2011), citing, Dalton v. Educational Testing Serv., 87 N.Y.2d 384, 389, 663 N.E.2d 289, 639 N.Y.S.2d 977 (1995.).
