(bouvier)
SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE, remedies. The actual accomplishment of a contract by

2. Many contracts are entered into by parties to fulfill certain
things, and then the contracting parties neglect or refuse to fulfill their

to recover a specific performance of the agreement.

jurisdiction for a specific performance of agreements, whenever courts of
law can give but an inadequate remedy; and it is immaterial whether the
subject relate to real or personal estate. 1 Madd. Ch. Pr. 295; 2 Story on
