Download or read book The Principles of Personal Property Law written by Duncan Sheehan and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-05-18 with total page 633 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The law of personal property covers a very wide spectrum of scenarios and, unfortunately, has had little detailed scrutiny of its overarching structure over the years. It is a system and can best be understood as a system. Indeed, without understanding it as a system, it becomes much more difficult to comprehend. The second edition of this acclaimed textbook continues to provide a comprehensive yet detailed coverage of the law of personal property in England and Wales. It includes transfer of legal title to chattels, the nemo dat rule, negotiable instruments and assignment of choses in action. It also looks at defective transfers of property and the resulting proprietary claims, including those contingent on tracing, the tort of conversion, bailment and security interests. By bringing together areas often scattered throughout company law, commercial law, trusts and tort textbooks, it enables readers to see common themes and issues and to make otherwise impossible generalisations across different contexts about the nature of the concepts English law applies. Throughout the book, concepts are explained rigorously, with reference to how they are used in commercial practice and everyday life. The new edition also includes a new chapter on secured transactions law reform, and introduces new material on the Cape Town Convention, IP rights and other intangible property. The book will be of primary interest to academics and practitioners in the area. However, it will also be of use to students studying commercial or personal property law.
Download or read book Set off written by S. R. Derham and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1996 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a completely revised, updated, and much enlarged edition of Derham's Set-Off which, when first published in 1987, rapidly established itself as one of the leading works on the subject. The purpose of the second edition, as the first edition, is to set out the principles of the law ofset-off and related doctrines, such as the banker's right to combine accounts and the rule in Cherry v Boultbee. A right of Set-Off is particularly important in the event of the insolvancy of one of the parties to mutual dealings resulting in cross-demands. In effect it enables the s9olvent party toobtain payment in full for his claim against the insolvent party in the form of a deduction from his liability, rather than being confined to proof as an unsecured creditor in the bankruptcy or winding up of the insolvent party. For this reason considerable emphasis is placed on the application ofthe law of set-off to insolvencies. In addition, though, set-off between solvent parties (particularly equitable set-offs) receives detailed treatment. The effect of an assignment of a debt and the appointment of a receiver are also considered, as well as diverse other questions such as whether asurety is entitled to the benefit of a right of set-off available to the principal debtor against the creditor.This edition is once again based primarily upton English case and staute law but also includes extensive references to Australian law, New Zealand and Irish law, and cases from a variety of jurisdictions involving international and cross-border set-off.

Download or read book Comparative Foundations of a European Law of Set Off and Prescription written by Reinhard Zimmermann and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2002-06-27 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The emergence of a European private law is one of the great issues on the legal agenda of our time. Among the most prominent initiatives furthering this process is the work of the Commission on European Contract Law. The essays collected in this 2002 volume have their origin within this context. They explore two practically very important topics which had hitherto been largely neglected in comparative legal literature: set-off and 'extinctive' prescription (or limitation of actions). Professor Zimmermann lays the comparative foundations for a common approach which may provide the basis for a set of European principles. At the same time, the essays provide practical examples of the arguments that can be employed in the process of harmonising European private law on a rational basis. They explore topics such as the comparative experiences in the various modern legal systems and the direction in which the international development is heading.
