Answer:

plain meaning rule

Explanation:

In plain meaning rule, the court will disregard all context or special circumstances when examining a contract. They will use what actually written in the contract even though it might contain bizarre conditions.

For example,

Let's say that person A signed a contract with person B to perform at B's cafe Last Saturday. The contract stated that if Person A fail to show up at Saturday, She'll be subjected to a $5,000 fine.

On Saturday, person A fail to show up  because she had an accident.

If the court does not adopt a plain meaning rule,  The $ 5,000 could be pardoned from person A due to unexpected circumstances. But, if plain meaning rule is applied, Person A still have to pay that $5,000.
