Therefore, there was "practical" impossibility, or "frustration", even though there was no physical impossibility ... The commercial purpose of the original contract has been frustrated; to go on when the delaying act or event has concluded its effects would be to bind the parties by a new contract, in new and different circumstances. 3, record 2, English, - practical%20impossibility
