Description

This title provides you with all the guidance you need on the law governing the voluntary assignment of things in action. It covers the nature of assignment, equitable assignments, restrictions, priorities, liabilities, conflict of law and more. The commentary is clear and concise and follows the approach of titles such as Chitty on Contracts – enabling you to find a statement of law and, for each issue or topic, the authority that supports it.

  • Defines assignment before outlining and giving examples of choses in action, detailing the requirements for assignment and looking at the relationship of assignment and other transactions.
  • Examines the law of assignment under section 136 of the Law of Property Act 1925.
  • Goes through equitable assignment and agreements to assign, covering both an equitable assignment of an equitable chose and of a legal chose.
  • Deals with restrictions on assignment and covers contractual terms forbidding assignment, prohibition by statute or public policy and personal contracts and covenants.
  • Discusses the position of creditors, trustees in bankruptcy and personal representatives of the assignor and the liquidator of an assignor company.
