Check a proposed termination for breach against the remedy and particular-grounds rules
Key facts
- Human involvement
- YellowClose supervision
- How AI is used
- From the breach notice and the agreement, record the agreement date, whether it has been extended or renewed and when, the breach alleged, any remedy period already given, and whether the franchisor relies on a particular ground such as insolvency. Calculate nothing. Do not write a termination notice.
- What the lawyer must review
- The lawyer decides whether a reasonable remedy period has been given, whether the breach has been fixed, and whether a particular-grounds termination needs 7 days' notice and a 28-day hold. The lawyer writes any notice.

Checklist
- If the breach was fixed inside the remedy time, do not support a termination for that breach.
- Split particular grounds on 1 July 2021. Immediate termination is the pre-1 July 2021 statement on the page.
- A dispute about a post-1 July 2021 particular-grounds notice holds termination for 28 days.
- Do not draft the termination notice. That is a separate catalogue task. Do not restate cooling-off, end-of-term notice or deemed-consent transfer rules here.
