aleatory contract
An aleatory contract is a contract in which the performance of one or both parties is contingent upon the occurrence of a particular event. The most common type of aleatory contract is an insurance policy.〔(Thomson-Gale Encyclopedia of American Law, courtesy of Jrank )〕〔Black's Law Dictionary, 7th ed. 1999〕 Such an insurance contract may be a boon to one party but create a major loss for the other, as more in benefits may be paid out than actual premiums received, or vice versa.〔(Barron's Dictionary of Insurance Terms, courtesy of Answers.com )〕
The term was a classification developed in later medieval Roman law to cover all contracts whose fulfilment depended on chance, including gambling, insurance, speculative investment and life annuities.〔J. Franklin, ''The Science of Conjecture: Evidence and Probability Before Pascal'' (Baltimore: Johns Hopkins University Press, 2001), ch. 11.〕 Many modern forms of derivatives and options may in some cases also be considered aleatory contracts. For example, the French civil code contains a chapter on aleatory contracts, with specific provisions for gaming (gambling) and life annuities.〔(Text of French Civil Code (in English) )〕
