It would be quite a shock for anyone to just find out one day that his insurance or employment contract or even partnership agreement for that matter has swiftly changed into a different document or one has been assigned new liabilities or certain rights have been taken away from them by newly imposed terms through post or through acting on them without realizing, since no one really reads a contract every time they are executing it but it is expected that the parties are bound by the existing terms, as valid.
However unfair this situation is the Courts seem to recognize that even after a contract has been signed the parties can vary it by behaving like they agreed to new terms in the contract, even if they did so inadvertently, meaning either of them did not intend to change its contract consciously but it was held that their actions did.
