Section 2. Sales, 11-2-101 through 11-2-725.

ARTICLE 2 SALES

11-2-309. Absence of specific time provisions; notice of termination.

  1. The time for shipment or delivery or any other action under a contract if not provided in this article or agreed upon shall be a reasonable time.
  2. Where the contract provides for successive performances but is indefinite in duration it is valid for a reasonable time but unless otherwise agreed may be terminated at any time by either party.
  3. Termination of a contract by one party except on the happening of an agreed event requires that reasonable notification be received by the other party and an agreement dispensing with notification is invalid if its operation would be unconscionable.

JUDICIAL DECISIONS

Plaintiff did not provide aggregate material within a timely manner.

- Trial court did not err in granting summary judgment in favor of the plaintiff on the defendants' counterclaim for breach of contract because, although the defendants alleged that the plaintiff was required to provide aggregate material within a specific schedule, but, on numerous occasions, it had failed to do so, the defendants failed to point to evidence of the contractual terms imposing the specific schedules, or, in other words, the dates by which the plaintiff had to deliver the aggregate material for seven projects; and, without pointing to evidence of the contractually required delivery dates for the materials for the seven projects, the defendants could not show that the plaintiff failed to deliver the materials in a timely manner.
