A condition precedent is a fact [act or event] which must exist or occur before a duty of immediate performance of a promise arises. (A condition precedent initiates a duty). Example, taken from law. com law dictionary: If the ship makes it to shore, the buyer agrees to pay for the freight on the ship and then unload it.
