Prevention doctrine is a common-law principle of contract law which says that a contracting party has an implied duty not to do anything that prevents the other party from performing its obligation. A party who prevents performance of a contract may not complain of such nonperformance. The following are examples of case law defining prevention doctrine: If a party to a contract is himself the cause of the failure of performance, either of an obligation due from him or of a condition upon which his liability depends, he cannot take advantage of the failure.[Meson v. GATX Tech. Servs. Corp., 507 F.3d 803, 806 (4th Cir. Md. 2007)]
