Law/Patents - Law (general) / terms
English term or phrase: Breach and Default
Are both the same with Default being the American equivalent of the British Breach or vice versa, or am I completely off here?

Example term: material breach, material default
"...except for any default by Developer under Sections..."
"...failure to meet the development schedule thereunder, any material default by Developer..."

הפרה ומחדל
Explanation:
Default is failing to do something or anything, and the legal jargon has it as:
מחדל
[Moses Legal Dict.]
That's what I normally use when no specific issue is mentioned.

Asker: Thank you Doron. Is it possible that Americans use default for all cases of default and breach?
