1. What are the invalid disclaimers?
The law takes different approaches to the validity of the exemption clause depending on the circumstances. In judicial practice, the law also prohibits exemption clauses that clearly violate the principle of good faith and harm the public interest, otherwise Qi Kong's actions will not only cause abuse of the exemption clauses, but also damage the interests of one party, and are not conducive to the protection of normal contract transactions. To this end, Article 506 of the Civil Code provides for the invalidity of the exemption clause:
The following disclaimers in the contract are null and void:
1. Causing personal injury to the other party;
2. Intentionally or grossly negligently causing property losses to the other party.
The reason why these two exemption clauses are invalid is that they not only violate the principle of good faith, but also infringe upon and damage the personal rights and legitimate rights and interests of the other party, so they must be resolutely prohibited.
2. Form of Disclaimer Clause.
In practice, such exemptions often appear in the following four forms:
1. All liability is exempted. That is, the parties have agreed in advance that the future victim waives any claim for compensation from the party that should be held liable in the future. This type of exemption clause is most prevalent in employment contracts.
2. Limitation of Liability. That is, the parties have agreed in advance that the compensation for personal injury in the future shall be calculated in the form of a specific party's deficiency or shall not exceed a certain amount of limited compensation. Such clauses are often found in current medical contracts.
3. Clauses that limit the duration of the request. That is, it is agreed in advance that the future victim must file a claim for compensation for personal injury within a certain period of time, and no longer has the right to claim compensation after the time limit. This kind of exemption clause does not take the appearance of direct exemption from liability, but restricts the right of the parties to make a claim by limiting the time limit of the claim, so as to evade the regulation of the law.
4. Establish a fixed compensation amount or model. That is, it is agreed in advance that in the event of personal injury liability, the responsible party shall compensate with a fixed amount, and the insufficient part shall be exempted or compensated in a fixed mode, rather than in accordance with the relevant laws and regulations.
3. Characteristics of the Disclaimer Clause.
1. The disclaimer clause is conventional. An exemption clause is an integral part of a contract agreed upon by both parties. This is different from the exemption from liability when force majeure is impossible or incomplete due to force majeure under the law.
The parties may, in accordance with the principle of autonomy of will, stipulate in the contract the content or scope of the exemption.
2. The exemption clause must be made in an express way, and any exemption made by implication is invalid.
3. The exemption clause in the contract is exempt. The purpose of the exemption clause is to exclude or limit the future civil liability of the parties.
