Contract law is governed by Part I (General Provisions, Articles 1-453) and Part II (Specific Types of Obligations, Articles 454-1109). The Code draws on German and Dutch models while incorporating distinctive Russian institutions, supplemented by federal laws and authoritative resolutions (postanovleniya) of the Plenum of the Supreme Court.</p>
