A specific performance action asks the court to compel performance of a contract for real estate, typically when property is unique or when monetary damages are insufficient. The remedy focuses on achieving the promised transfer or sale, not merely compensating with money. In California, such actions require meeting legal standards and demonstrating clear entitlement.
