Abstract:Contract deadlock is not a false proposition, but a real one in judicial practice. In practice, the "contract deadlock" caused by money debt occurs from time to time. Rescinding the contract is undoubtedly the best choice. It can not only make both parties get rid of the shackles of the contract, but also save social resources and optimize the allocation of market resources. Unfortunately, although article 580 of the Civil Code provides a solution to "contract deadlock", it cannot be applied to "contract deadlock" caused by money debt. In practice, in the face of this kind of deadlock, different courts have different adjudication paths, and there are shortcomings. At present, the best way to solve the "contract deadlock" caused by money debt is to apply the second paragraph of article 580 of the Civil Code by analogy.
