Σελίδα 219 - Dec. 1833, no action or suit or other proceeding shall be brought to recover any sum of money secured by any mortgage, judgment or lien, or otherwise charged upon or payable out of any land or rent, at law or in equity, or any legacy, but within twenty years next after a present right to receive the same shall have accrued to some person capable of giving a discharge for or release of the same...
Σελίδα 15 - That no action shall be brought whereby to charge any person upon or by reason of any representation or assurance made or given concerning or relating to the character, conduct, credit, ability, trade, or dealings of any other person, to the intent or purpose that such other person may obtain credit, money, or goods upon, unless such representation or assurance be made in writing, signed by the party to be charged therewith.
Σελίδα 2 - no action shall be brought whereby to charge the defendant upon any special promise to answer for the debt, default, or miscarriage of another person, unless the agreement upon which such action shall be brought, or some memorandum or note thereof, shall be in writing, and signed by the party to be charged therewith, or some other person thereunto by him lawfully authorized.
Σελίδα 2 - That no action shall be brought .... whereby to charge the defendant upon any special promise to answer for the debt, default, or miscarriage of another person .... unless the agreement upon which such action shall be brought, or some memorandum or note thereof, shall be in writing, and signed by the party to be charged therewith, or some other person thereunto by him lawfully authorized.
Σελίδα 219 - ... unless in the meantime some part of the principal money, or some interest thereon, shall have been paid, or some acknowledgment of the right thereto shall have been given in writing, signed by the person by whom the same shall be payable, or his agent, to the person entitled thereto, or his agent; and in such case, no such action or suit or proceeding shall be brought but within twenty years after such payment or acknowledgment, or the last of such payments or acknowledgments, if more than one,...
Σελίδα 119 - ... or bail, shall be entitled to prove his demand in respect of such payment as a debt under the commission, not disturbing the former dividends, and may receive dividends with the other creditors, although he may have become surety, liable, or bail as aforesaid, after an act of bankruptcy committed by such bankrupt ; provided that such person had not, when he became such surety or bail, or so liable as aforesaid, notice of any act of bankruptcy by such bankrupt committed.
Σελίδα 178 - On the other hand, if the surety afterwards makes a promise to pay, he cannot object to that as a promise without consideration : the promise is valid, not as the constitution of a new, but the revival of an old, debt. So, when a bankrupt is discharged by his certificate, he cannot, for that reason, impeach a subsequent promise to pay a former debt, as a promise without consideration.
Σελίδα 219 - ... years next after a present right to receive the same shall have accrued to some person capable of giving a discharge for or release of the same, unless in the meantime some part of the principal money, or some interest thereon...
Σελίδα 99 - That if any Bankrupt shall, before the issuing of the Commission, have Contracted, any Debt payable upon a Contingency which shall not have happened before the issuing of such Commission, the Person with whom such Debt has been contracted may, if he think fit, apply to the Commissioners to set a Value upon such Debt, and the Commissioners are hereby required to ascertain the Value thereof, and to admit such Person to prove the Amount so ascertained...
Σελίδα 6 - Nash is very distinguishable from this. The promise there was to pay a sum of money as an inducement to withdraw a record in an action of assault, brought against a third person. It did not appear that the defendant in that action had ever committed the assault, or that he had ever been liable in damages ; and the case was expressly decided on the ground that it was an original, and not a collateral, promise. Here the son had rendered himself liable by his wrongful act, and the promise was expressly...
