According to the Contract Act 1872 of Pakistan, a contract is an agreement enforceable by law that creates some rights and duties upon the contracting parties. A contract must have a lawful offer, acceptance, consideration, capacity, consent and object. A contract may be voided if it becomes impossible to perform due to some unforeseen event that is beyond the control of the parties. In your case, you have a running contract with an individual who has failed to complete a project by the agreed deadline, despite receiving 90% of the payment.
