(1) Wer bei der Abgabe einer Willenserklärung über deren Inhalt im Irrtum war oder eine Erklärung dieses Inhalts überhaupt nicht abgeben wollte, kann die Erklärung anfechten, wenn anzunehmen ist, dass er sie bei Kenntnis der Sachlage und bei verständiger Würdigung des Falles nicht abgegeben haben würde.
(2) Als Irrtum über den Inhalt der Erklärung gilt auch der Irrtum über solche Eigenschaften der Person oder der Sache, die im Verkehr als wesentlich angesehen werden.
§ 120 Anfechtbarkeit wegen falscher Übermittlung
Eine Willenserklärung, welche durch die zur Übermittlung verwendete Person oder Einrichtung unrichtig übermittelt worden ist, kann unter der gleichen Voraussetzung angefochten werden wie nach § 119 eine irrtümlich abgegebene Willenserklärung.
§ 122 Schadensersatzpflicht des Anfechtenden
(1) Ist eine Willenserklärung nach § 118 nichtig oder auf Grund der §§ 119, 120 angefochten, so hat der Erklärende, wenn die Erklärung einem anderen gegenüber abzugeben war, diesem, andernfalls jedem Dritten den Schaden zu ersetzen, den der andere oder der Dritte dadurch erleidet, dass er auf die Gültigkeit der Erklärung vertraut, jedoch nicht über den Betrag des Interesses hinaus, welches der andere oder der Dritte an der Gültigkeit der Erklärung hat.
(2) Die Schadensersatzpflicht tritt nicht ein, wenn der Beschädigte den Grund der Nichtigkeit oder der Anfechtbarkeit kannte oder infolge von Fahrlässigkeit nicht kannte (kennen musste).
§ 179 Haftung des Vertreters ohne Vertretungsmacht
(1) Wer als Vertreter einen Vertrag geschlossen hat, ist, sofern er nicht seine Vertretungsmacht nachweist, dem anderen Teil nach dessen Wahl zur Erfüllung oder zum Schadensersatz verpflichtet, wenn der Vertretene die Genehmigung des Vertrags verweigert.
(2) Hat der Vertreter den Mangel der Vertretungsmacht nicht gekannt, so ist er nur zum Ersatz desjenigen Schadens verpflichtet, welchen der andere Teil dadurch erleidet, dass er auf die Vertretungsmacht vertraut, jedoch nicht über den Betrag des Interesses hinaus, welches der andere Teil an der Wirksamkeit des Vertrags hat.
(3) Der Vertreter haftet nicht, wenn der andere Teil den Mangel der Vertretungsmacht kannte oder kennen musste. Der Vertreter haftet auch dann nicht, wenn er in der Geschäftsfähigkeit beschränkt war, es sei denn, dass er mit Zustimmung seines gesetzlichen Vertreters gehandelt hat.

3. ähnliche geschäftliche Kontakte.
(3) Ein Schuldverhältnis mit Pflichten nach § 241 Abs. 2 kann auch zu Personen entstehen, die nicht selbst Vertragspartei werden sollen. Ein solches Schuldverhältnis entsteht insbesondere, wenn der Dritte in besonderem Maße Vertrauen für sich in Anspruch nimmt und dadurch die Vertragsverhandlungen oder den Vertragsschluss erheblich beeinflusst.
§ 311a Leistungshindernis bei Vertragsschluss
(1) Der Wirksamkeit eines Vertrags steht es nicht entgegen, dass der Schuldner nach § 275 Abs. 1 bis 3 nicht zu leisten braucht und das Leistungshindernis schon bei Vertragsschluss vorliegt.
(2) Der Gläubiger kann nach seiner Wahl Schadensersatz statt der Leistung oder Ersatz seiner Aufwendungen in dem in § 284 bestimmten Umfang verlangen. Dies gilt nicht, wenn der Schuldner das Leistungshindernis bei Vertragsschluss nicht kannte und seine Unkenntnis auch nicht zu vertreten hat. § 281 Abs. 1 Satz 2 und 3 und Abs. 5 findet entsprechende Anwendung.

Die Ersatzpflicht tritt nicht ein, wenn der Geschäftsherr bei der Auswahl der bestellten Person und, sofern er Vorrichtungen oder Gerätschaften zu beschaffen oder die Ausführung der Verrichtung zu leiten hat, bei der Beschaffung oder der Leitung die im Verkehr erforderliche Sorgfalt beobachtet oder wenn der Schaden auch bei Anwendung dieser Sorgfalt entstanden sein würde.
(2) Die gleiche Verantwortlichkeit trifft denjenigen, welcher für den Geschäftsherrn die Besorgung eines der im Absatz 1 Satz 2 bezeichneten Geschäfte durch Vertrag übernimmt.

§ 119 Voidability due to mistake
(1) A person who, when making a statement of intent, is mistaken as to its content or did not at all intend to make a statement of the content of the statement that was actually made, may void the statment if it appears that such person would not have made such statement if he had been aware of the facts and made a reasoned evaluation of them.
(2) A mistake as to such characteristics of the person or the object as are considered material in the normal course of dealing shall also be deemed to constitute a mistake.

§ 179 Liability of unauthorised agents
(1) An agent who, in concluding an agreement on behalf of another, fails to prove that he is authorised to represent such other, is liable, at the election of such other party, either to specifically perform such agreement or to compensation, if the principal refuses to authorise the conclusion of the agreement.
(2) If the agent was unaware of the lack of authorisation, the agent shall only be liable to compensate such damage as is incurred by the other party in reliance on the authorisation; however, the amount of such compensation shall not exceed the amount of the interest of the other party in the enforceability of the agreement.
(3) The agent shall not be liable if the other party knew or should have known of the lack of authorisation. Nor shall the agent be liable if his ability to conduct his own affairs has been limited, unless he acted with the consent of his legal representative.

(2) A relationship of obligation with the duties enumerated in § 241 II may also be created by
1. the initiation of contract negotiations,
2. the invitation to form a contract, if one party entrusts to the other party his rights, legal goods, and interests or allows the other party to influence such rights, legal goods, and interests in contemplation of a future transactional relationship , or
3. similar business contacts.
(3) A relationship with the obligations enumerated in § 241 Abs. 2 can also arise for persons who are not themselves intended to become parties to the contemplated contract. Such a relationship shall arise, inter alia, in cases in which such third party accepts a special trust or substantially influences the conclusion of the contract.
§ 311a Inability to perform at time of conclusion of contract
(1) The fact that the debtor is not obligated to perform on a contract pursuant to § 275 I - III and such inability to perform exists at the time of conclusion of the contract does not affect the enforceability of the contract.
(2) At the election of the creditor, the creditor may require compensation in lieu of performance or compensation for expenses incurred within the limitations of § 284 . The foregoing does not apply if the debtor was unaware of the inability to perform at the time of conclusion and is not at fault for such unawareness. § 281 I Sent. 2 and 3 and V shall apply accordingly.

§ 831 Vicarious liability for employees
(1) A person who appoints another to perform a task is liable to compensate for the damage such other unlawfully causes to a third party while performing such task. No duty to compensate shall arise if the employer exercised due care in selecting and supervising such employee, or if the damage would have arisen even if due care were exercised.
(2) The foregoing paragraph shall also apply to a person who contractually undertakes to procure one of the transactions enumerated in par. 1 sent. 2.

Bio
A wealth of
multilingual experience
I have over twenty years of experience translating a diverse
array of legal, medical, and technical documents in an equally diverse array of
language combinations. Whether you’re looking to place an Italian radiology
report, a Chilean land transfer deed, or a German patent for manufacturing
equipment there’s a good chance that I’ve done it, or something like it, at
least a few times before.
Target languages: English,
Spanish, German, Japanese (on a case-by-case basis)
A good translation requires more than the ability to look up
terms; however, when there are terms to look up, the right resources can be
crucial. Dictionaries, even highly specialised technical dictionaries, are only
of limited utility when it comes to highly specific terminology. That's why I
go right to primary sources. In addition to a wide variety of mono- and
bilingual dictionaries, I maintain a diverse library of standard reference
works in my specialties. My personal library ranges from Prosser & Keeton
on Torts, through the Palandt commentary on the German Civil Code, to Rosen's
Emergency Medicine and Neuroendocrinology in Medicine and Physiology. Study of
and access to all of these primary sources gives me not only the terms, but the
background knowledge to know how and when to use them.
