Terms and Conditions in UK Law
-
Butler Machine Tool Company Ltd v Ex-Cell-O Corporation (England) Ltd
“
The better way is to look at all the documents passing between the parties - and glean from them - or from the conduct of the parties whether they have reached agreement on all material points ven though there may be differences between the forms and conditions printed on the back of them. If differences are irreconcilable - so that they are mutually contradictory - then the conflicting terms may have to be scrapped and replaced by a reasonable implication

RTS Flexible Systems Ltd v Molkerei Alois Muller GmbH & Company KG
“
Whether there is a binding contract between the parties and, if so, upon what terms depends upon what they have agreed. It depends not upon their subjective state of mind, but upon a consideration of what was communicated between them by words or conduct, and whether that leads objectively to a conclusion that they intended to create legal relations and had agreed upon all the terms which they regarded or the law requires as essential for the formation of legally binding relations.

Johnson v Unisys Ltd
“
Implied terms may supplement the express terms of the contract but cannot contradict them. Employment law requires a balancing of the interests of employers and employees, with proper regard not only to the individual dignity and worth of the employees but also to the general economic interest. Their traditional function is to adapt and modernise the common law. But such developments must be consistent with legislative policy as expressed in statutes.
Consistently with these provisions, Mr Johnson was written a letter of engagement which stated his salary and summarised the terms and conditions of his employment, including the notice period. Apart from the statement that in the event of gross misconduct, the company could terminate his employment without notice, it made no reference to disciplinary matters.

Tekdata Interconnections Ltd v Amphenol Ltd
“
The judge found that Amphenol acknowledged the purchase orders by sending an acknowledgment to Tekdata. In law it could only be at that date at earliest that a contract for the purchase and sale of the specified connectors came into existence.
In my judgment, it is not possible to lay down a general rule that will apply in all cases where there is a battle of the forms. It always depends on an assessment of what the parties must objectively be taken to have intended.

Investors Compensation Scheme Ltd v West Bromwich Building Society
“
(1) Interpretation is the ascertainment of the meaning which the document would convey to a reasonable person having all the background knowledge which would reasonably have been available to the parties in the situation in which they were at the time of the contract.
