Welcome back to the Bar Exam Toolbox podcast! Today, in an episode from our "Listen and Learn" series, we're talking about anticipatory repudiation, which is an often-tested issue both on the MBE and on Contracts essays.

In this episode, we discuss:

• What is anticipatory repudiation?
• What constitutes an "unequivocal communication"?
• Presenting a demand for adequate assurances of the contract's completion
• Rights and remedies available to the non-repudiating party
• Topics that anticipatory repudiation is tested alongside of
• Going through two hypos from bar exam Contracts essays
