Hi,
What is the exact legal term for an act that puts the opposite party in financial disadvantage for ulterior reasons? Consider the following scenario
"Party A and Party B enter into a contract whereby Party A is to supply certain services to Party B for monetary consideration. Party B during the course of the contract observes certain deficiencies in service in as much as the service is not compliant to the regulatory standards. Party B complains to the authorities resulting in some action from regulators against Party A. Party A in order to pressurise Party B into withdrawing its complaint breaches the contract entered into earlier. Party A is in dare financial stress due to the breach of contract"
What is the legal term for Party A's deliberate malicious act of putting Party B at financial disadvantage? Thanks Mahesh
