“Expressum facit cessare tactitum” & “Expressio Unius, Exclusio Alterius”

Description

This Skill Bit talks about how the principle “expressum facit cessare tacitum” emphasizes explicit contract terms over implied understandings. Clearly expressed terms supersede any implicit terms, preventing disputes and ensuring contractual clarity. “Expressio unius, exclusio alterius” means mentioning one thing implies excluding others. It aids contract and law interpretation by clarifying scope and limitations. However, it should be applied cautiously, considering context and intent.
