The German Law of Obligations was promulgated in 1896 and has been for more than 100 years from now. All the factors such as the changes of the society, the development of the science and technology, the legislation in EU and the international environment, make it necessary for the civil code to have substantial modification. One of the major objectives of the new German Civil Code, is to reform the regulations concerning breach of duty, making the legal system transparent. The modification focused mainly on remodeling the whole system. The breach of duty regulations originally contained in particular articles of the civil code have been integrated into the general articles. Remedies for breach of duty become the central part of the new regulation. A claim for performance cannot be made in so far as it is impossible for the obligor or for anyone else to perform. Thus the new code gave up the "impossibilium nulla est obligatio." principle of old Roman law. If the obligor fails to perform his duties arising from the obligation, the oblige may claim compensation for the loss resulting from this breach. In this ca se, the obligor's fault will be assumed. The oblige may demand compensation for delay in performance if the additional requirement in § 286 is satisfied. The oblige may demand compensation in lieu of performance, if the additional requirements of § 281,§ 282 or §283 are satisfied. Even the impossibility for performance already exists at the time of contracting does not prevent the contract from being valid. A claim for performance though cannot be made in so far as it is impossible for the obligor or for anyone else to perform. If the obligor fails to perform his duties arising from the obligation, the oblige may claim compensation for the loss resulting from this breach. This does not apply, however, if the obligor is not deemed liable for the failure to per- form. The oblige may also demand reimbursement of the expenditure which he incurred in reasonable reliance on the performance, except where the expenditure would be paid for nothing even if the obligor had not breached his duty. If the obligor obtains a substitute for the object owed, the oblige may demand surrender of what has been received. There were no substantial modifications on Delay by the obligor. By a contract of sale the seller of a thing is bound to deliver the thing to the buyer and to transfer to him ownership of the thing. The guarantee of no defect doctrine has been replaced by non-performance principle. Deli- very of defected goods will only result in responsibilities, if the obligor has fault. The rights of oblige have been limited. If under a synallagmatic contract the obligor fails to perform when due or to perform in accordance with the contract, the oblige may terminate the contract, with or without giving the other party an additional grace period. Culpa in contrahendo and clausula rebus sic stantibus which were rules made by judge, have both now been incorporated into status.
