Holder v. Holder
Facts:
Plaintiff
employee in Fairfax obtained a money judgment against defendant executors of
employer's estate for domestic services provided by plaintiff, as stated in
decedent's will. The trial court set aside the verdict on the grounds that
plaintiff's claim was barred by the three-year statute of limitations, and
plaintiff sought review. The court held that when one party to a contract had
entirely abandoned it or had absolutely refused to perform it, the other party
was allowed to elect to sue on it without waiting for the time of performance
to arrive. The court held that anticipatory repudiation applied to contracts
for services. The court held that, since on the happening of an anticipatory
breach the promisee had the right to await the time for performance and
initiate action when such time arrived, the statute of limitations had not
begun to run until the time for performance fixed by the terms of the contract.
The court reversed a judgment of the trial court.
