Drawing of Lots Clause Samples
The 'Drawing of lots' clause establishes a method for making a decision or selection by random chance, typically when two or more parties are equally eligible or when a tie occurs. In practice, this might involve placing names or numbers into a container and selecting one at random to determine an outcome, such as assigning a contract or resolving a deadlock. The core function of this clause is to provide a fair and impartial mechanism for resolving situations where objective criteria cannot distinguish between parties, thereby preventing disputes and ensuring procedural clarity.
