Wisconsin Code § 402.609

Right to adequate assurance of performance
Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
(1) A contract for sale imposes an obligation on each
party that the other’s expectation of receiving due performance
will not be impaired. When reasonable grounds for insecurity
arise with respect to the performance of either party the other
may in writing demand adequate assurance of due performance
and until the demanding party receives such assurance may if
commercially reasonable suspend any performance for which the
demanding party has not already received the agreed return.
(2) Between merchants the reasonableness of grounds for insecurity and the adequacy of any assurance offered shall be determined according to commercial standards.
(3) Acceptance of any improper delivery or payment does not
prejudice the aggrieved party’s right to demand adequate assurance of future performance.
(4) After receipt of a justified demand failure to provide

within a reasonable time not exceeding 30 days such assurance of
due performance as is adequate under the circumstances of the
particular case is a repudiation of the contract.
