Legal risk management of stone purchase and sale

1.1: Please note that “deposit” and “deposit” are not equal to “deposit”
When you sign a contract, you may require the other party to pay a deposit in order to ensure the performance of the contract. Since “deposit” has a specific legal meaning, you must indicate the word “deposit”. If you use the words “deposit”, “deposit” and so on, and do not clearly state in the contract that once the other party breaches the contract, it will not be returned, once the other party breaches the contract, it will be double returned, the court will not be able to treat it as a deposit.
1.2: please clarify the meaning of guarantee
If your business requires the other party to provide guarantee, when signing the guarantee contract with relevant customers, please be sure to state the clear meaning of the guarantor providing guarantee for the performance of the debt, avoid using the vague statements such as “responsible for settlement” and “responsible for coordination”, otherwise the court will not be able to determine the establishment of the guarantee contract.
You may also provide warranties to others for business purposes. Whether you are a creditor or a guarantor, it is recommended that you specify the starting and ending points of the guarantee period when signing the guarantee contract. If you agree with the other party that the warranty period is longer than two years, the law will treat the warranty period as two years. If there is no clear agreement, the guarantee period will be regarded as six months from the date of expiry of the main debt performance period. Although the choice of “joint and several guarantee” or “general guarantee” depends on the negotiation between you and the customer, the guarantee contract must include the words “joint and several guarantee” or “general guarantee”. If there is no clear agreement, the court will consider it as a joint and several liability guarantee.
If you are a creditor and the debt guaranteed by the “general guarantee” guarantee contract is not paid when it is due, you must file a lawsuit or arbitration with the debtor and the guarantor within the guarantee period. If the debt guaranteed by the guarantee contract in the form of “joint and several guarantee” is not paid after the expiration of the guarantee contract, please clearly require the guarantor to perform the guarantee obligation immediately in a demonstrable and effective way during the guarantee period. If you do not exercise your rights during the warranty period, the guarantor will exempt you from the warranty liability.
1.3: please register for mortgage guarantee
If your business requires the other party to provide mortgage guarantee, it is recommended that you and your client go through the registration formalities with the relevant registration authority immediately when signing the mortgage contract. Only the mortgage contract without going through the registration procedures may cause your rights and interests to lose the basis of realization. Unnecessary delay and delay may make your right inferior to other enterprises that have registered before you. If your client delays or refuses to assist you to go through the mortgage registration procedures after signing the mortgage contract, it is recommended that you file a lawsuit with the court as soon as possible and ask the court to help you to go through the registration procedures compulsively.
1.4: pledge guarantee please ensure the delivery of the pledged goods
If your business requires the other party to provide pledge guarantee, it is recommended that you handle the handover procedures of pledge collateral or right certificate with your customer immediately when signing the contract. If you only sign the pledge contract without actually occupying the pledge, the court will not be able to protect your request to realize the pledge right.
Precautions during the performance of the contract
2.1: Please perform the contractual obligations according to the contract
Contracts established according to law are protected by law. If the contract concluded between the enterprise and the customer does not violate the mandatory provisions of laws and administrative regulations or damage the public interest, it is an effective contract protected by law. Both parties have the obligation to strictly follow the agreement and fully perform the contract. No matter the name of the company is changed, the stock rights of the company are changed, or the legal representative, person in charge, or person in charge are changed, it can not be the reason for not performing the contract, which is also an important guarantee to maintain your and the business reputation of the company.
2.2.: please actively seek the dispute resolution method with the maximum benefit
Changes in the economic situation often lead to sharp fluctuations in the market price of goods. It is recommended that you do not easily choose to take the initiative to breach the contract, terminate the contract, or file a lawsuit to solve the problem. It is more conducive to reduce the loss to negotiate with your customers equally and find a solution acceptable to both parties. Even in the process of litigation, accepting mediation under the auspices of the court will be more conducive to the protection of the interests of enterprises. It may not be in your best interest not to actively seek a settlement and wait for a ruling.

Unnecessary delay may result in your loss of claim right.

In the process of negotiation and performance of the contract, you often inevitably come into contact with the trading partner’s business information or even business secrets. Please do not disclose or use these information after negotiation, performance of the contract or even performance, otherwise you may bear the corresponding responsibility.
