In civil law systems, it is common to distinguish, for the purpose of damages, between various kinds of default. Common law systems do not distinguish, as a matter of legal principle, between damages for delay and non-performance, or between damages for delay, impossibility and defective performance. The general requirements for notice of default in civil law and common law are discussed.
