conjunctive obligation

Read a random definition: privy purse

A quick definition of conjunctive obligation:

A conjunctive obligation is a legal or moral duty to do or not do something that is composed of multiple performances that can be separately rendered or enforced. This means that there are several things that need to be done, and each one can be done separately. For example, if someone borrows money, the conjunctive obligation may require payment of four loan installments and delivery of a deed of trust. Each loan installment and the deed's delivery is a separate, enforceable performance.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A legal or moral duty to do or not do something that is composed of multiple performances that can be separately rendered or enforced. It is an obligation in which several objects are connected by "and" (not "or") or are in some other way clearly meant to be separately included in the contract.

Example: A loan agreement's conjunctive obligation may require payment of four loan installments and delivery of a deed of trust. Each loan installment and the deed's delivery is a separate, enforceable performance.

Explanation: In this example, the conjunctive obligation requires the borrower to make four separate loan payments and deliver a deed of trust. Each of these performances is separate and enforceable, meaning that if the borrower fails to make one of the payments or deliver the deed, the lender can take legal action to enforce that specific performance. The conjunctive obligation ensures that all of the required performances are completed before the obligation is considered fulfilled.
