fiduciary contract

fiduciary contract
A contract which embraces trust and confidence reposed by one party in the other, refers to the integrity and fidelity of the party trusted rather than his credit or ability, and contemplates good faith rather than legal obligation. Smith v Vogilvie, 127 NY 143, 27 NE 807.
