There can be a contingent contract wherein a party promises to do or not do something if a future uncertain event happens within a fixed time. Such a contract is void if the event does not happen and the time lapses.

Both strategies manage uncertainty, but contingent contracts remain more rigid, whereas contingency agreements offer greater flexibility.

Contingent means that an event may or may not occur in the future, depending on the fulfillment of some condition that is uncertain. This term is often used in contracts where the event will not take effect until the specified condition occurs.

A contingent contract is a legal agreement in which the terms and conditions only apply or take effect if a specific event occurs. Essentially, the parties involved agree to perform actions or obligations based on the occurrence or non-occurrence of a particular event in the future.

Contingent contracts to do or not to do anything if an uncertain future event happens cannot be enforced by law unless and until that event has happened. If the event becomes impossible, such contracts become void.

Some cases may constitute exception. However, the event must not be of impossible character. In a contingent contract, there should be some event collateral to the contract. If the event consist in the performance of the contract itself by one party it is not a contingent contract.
