The first sentence of the second paragraph is based upon the widely recognized “first rule” of contract interpretation that the finder of fact must give the language employed the meaning that the parties intended.
General principles The following are the main principles of contract interpretation: An objective test is applied in terms of determining the intention of the parties to the contract. This means the analysis is based on an understanding of the contract by a reasonable hypothetical person.
Courts interpret contracts based on the plain meaning of their provisions, giving words their ordinary, usual, and popular meaning. The parties' subjective intent (i.e., what they believed) is irrelevant if the court can ascertain their intent from the words in the contract.
The agreement is considered a preliminary step and not a final, enforceable contract.
For a contract to be valid and recognized by the common law, it must include certain elements-- offer, acceptance, consideration, intention to create legal relations, authority and capacity, and certainty. Without these elements, a contract is not legally binding and may not be enforced by the courts.
Interpretation. This Part briefly describes three major interpretive theories: textualism, intentionalism, and pragmatism. The Supreme Court's recent decision in King v. Burwell shows these theories in action.
Interpretation involves an ascertainment of the meaning of the words and provisions of a contract. Whereas "construction" of a contract relates to the legal effect of the words used by the parties, "interpretation" addresses the meaning of the parties.
