McLeod still has all his rights but is relieved of his duties under the contract. e. none of the above.Explanation / Answer
The case is about the binding contract between Fennel and McLeod. Fennel has given the blueprint according to which Mcleod has to discharge their services of construction.
Mcleod has transfer the contract to Conerly.
Option a shows that the Fennel can bring a suit under the doctrine of anticipatory breach. But this option is not correct here as anticipatory breach is the premature destruction of contract but here the transfer is done after the assignment has been completed. The work is not incomplete. So, it is the duty of the binding party that they have to finish the contract on time and within specific boundaries. Siut can't be filled in this case as assignment is completed before transfer of contract.
Option b and c i not correct because Mcleod does not extinguses their rights. Here they actually transfer their duties not abolish their duties. Hence option b is wrong and option c is incomplete as they does not extinguses their duties but they transfer their duties to perform the assignment.
Hence option d is correct in this case.
