Finding Good Faith and Fair Dealing In Entertainment and Sports Relationships
August 30, 2005

For many entertainment and sports professionals, the most significant and far-reaching of these implied duties is the duty of good faith and fair dealing that courts read into every contract. As straightforward as the obligation sounds when described in general terms, it can be vexing to determine what particular conduct it may require in specific situations. What's more, the reported decisions construing the obligation tend to be highly fact-dependent, thus providing only limited guidance.
