In an automated contract there are future obligations in a smart contract, where the contract has to sustain over a time period, payments have to be delivered, trade obligations have to be fulfilled, funding has to be delivered, along with interest payments in the near future, which is time bound and can be easily manage with this law blocks technology using blockchain and smart contracts based automation.

What is a smart contract

A smart contract is simplest form of decentralized automation, and is most easily and accurately defined as follows:

A smart contract is a mechanism involving digital assets and two or more parties, where some or all of the parties put assets in, and assets are automatically redistributed among those parties according to a formula based on certain data that is not known at the time the contract is initiated.

One example of a smart contract would be an employment agreement: A wants to pay $500 to B to build a website. The contract would work as follows: A puts $500 into the contract, and the funds are locked up. When B finishes the website, B can send a message to the contract asking to unlock the funds. If A agrees, the funds are released. If B decides not to finish the website, B can quit by sending a message to relinquish the funds. If B claims that he finished the website, but A does not agree, then after a 7-day waiting period it’s up to judge J to provide a verdict in A or B’s favour. Entire process is transparent between party A and party B and both the parties have to sign using cryptographic signature.
