Many common-law principles of contract (see the [[Contracts Overview]]) were developed in Britain during the 1800s. In some instances, those principles were codified into statute law by the British parliament. One important area of the common law of contract that was codified was the sale of goods law. BC’s present [http://canlii.ca/t/84c2 ''Sale of Goods Act''] was modelled after the British law. | Many common-law principles of contract (see the [[Contracts Overview]]) were developed in Britain during the 1800s.
