Barton v Armstrong
''Barton v Armstrong'' () (UKPC 2 ) is an Australian/English contract law case relating to duress. It held that a person who agrees to a contract under physical duress may avoid the contract, even if the duress was not the main reason for agreeing to the bargain.
==Facts==
Mr Barton was the managing director of a company, whose main business was in property development. Its main projects were going through ‘Paradise Waters (Sales) Pty Ltd’. Barton made a deed so the company agreed to pay $140,000 to Alexander Armstrong, a state politician, and buy his shares for $180,000. Mr Armstrong was the chairman of the board.
Street J found Mr Armstrong had threatened to have Mr Barton killed. But the NSW Court of Appeal said Mr Barton failed to discharge the onus that the threat had caused him to make the contract.
