The remedy of specific performance is generally available for a breach of contract. This means that the court can order the breaching party to fulfill their obligations under the contract as agreed upon. The other options listed are not always available or applicable as remedies for a breach of contract. Repudiation refers to a party outright rejecting their obligations under the contract, which would lead to termination of the agreement. Punitive damages are not typically awarded for a breach of contract, which is a civil matter rather than a criminal one. Anticipatory breach refers to a party indicating their intention to not fulfill their obligations under the contract, which could give the non-breaching party the right to terminate the agreement. Novation is not a remedy, but rather a process by which one party is substituted for another in the original contract.
