assist. The first suggested category was the case of
"skimped" performance, where the defendant fails to
provide the full extent of services he has contracted to
provide. He should be liable to pay back the amount
of expenditure he saved by the breach. This is a much
discussed problem. But a part refund of the price
agreed for services would not fall within the scope
of an account of profits as ordinarily understood. Nor
does an account of profits seem to be needed in this
context. The resolution of the problem of cases of
skimped performance, where the plaintiff does not
get what was agreed, may best be found elsewhere.
If a shopkeeper supplies inferior and cheaper goods
than those ordered and paid for, he has to refund the
difference in price. That would be the outcome of a
claim for damages for breach of contract. That would
be so, irrespective of whether the goods in fact served
the intended purpose. There must be scope for a similar
approach, without any straining of principle, in cases
where the defendant provided inferior and cheaper
services than those contracted for.
The second suggested category was where the
defendant has obtained his profit by doing the very
thing he contracted not to do. This category is defined
too widely to assist. The category is apt to embrace all
express negative obligations. But something more is
required than mere breach of such an obligation before
an account of profits will be the appropriate remedy.
Lord Woolf MR [1998] Ch 439 , 457, 458, also
suggested three facts which should not be a sufficient
ground for departing from the normal basis on which
damages are awarded: the fact that the breach was
cynical and deliberate; the fact that the breach enabled
the defendant to enter into a more profitable contract
elsewhere; and the fact that by entering into a new and
more profitable contract the defendant put it out of his
power to perform his contract with the plaintiff. I agree
that none of these facts would be, by itself, a good
reason for ordering an account of profits.
