Before you can find if the party is entitled to a recovery for the other parties breach of contract, I believe one should look and find out what the party accually performed from the contract, according to all of the particulars in the contract. Substanital performance implies that one of the parties has done work required of it, carefully and in good faith. Completing the work required of the contract (expected from them) in all materials, respects and having done so, then it should not be unreasonable not to rule infavor of the party that completed the work.
In order for a substantial performance to occur there has been an approximation to complete performance that the owner obtains substationally. The other party in the performance must not have deprived the other party in any way other than the intend use of teh property.
The issue of substantial performance can be raised in all types of contracts. Often construction contracts include substantial performance as a condition for payment. Because substantial performance is less than full performance, it does not completely discharge the duty to perform. When considering nominal damages in the context of substantial performance, it is important to know what level of deviation will still fall under substantial performance, and the extent, degree and value of the nonperformance. Performance that falls short of being labeled substantial may justify nonpayment but not cancellation of the contract. This chapter discusses substantial performance as a defense, and the method of pleading it.

IF you have the energy to work two full-time jobs, no law or policy forbids that. Employers have nearly zero control over what you do when not clocked in with them. Employees have no "contractual obligations"; they have job duties and schedules. Only a tiny fraction of US employees have individual employment contracts, and the small fraction with union contracts have no "obligations" - bargained contracts bing employer and UNION, not workers.
Undelivered Orders Outstanding "O"
Type of contract in which each party's obligations are independent of those of the other, and each party can demand performance from the other without performing its own part. Contracts of employment, for example, are usually divisible: the employee must work even if the salary is not paid on time. A contract, however, does not become divisible simply because it has to be completed in parts or stages.
The retention sum is outstanding own his various contracts are substantial part of the contractor's capital.
A court would uphold a contractual obligation if the contract is legally valid (meeting all requirements of a valid contract), clearly outlines the obligations of both parties, and was entered into willingly by both parties without coercion or fraud. Additionally, the terms of the contract must be legal and not against public policy.
