When is a bill of sale valid when there is an actual cash payment made after the bill has been sold?
Saskatchewan, Canada
The following excerpt is from Bailey v. Howatt, 1914 CanLII 77 (SK QB):
It was further objected that, in any event, the bill of sale should stand so far as the actual cash payments made after the bill of sale, and in support of this contention a number of cases were cited, including Douglas v. Hourie, 2 Sask. L.R. 34, 10 W.L.R. 67. The case at bar, however, in my opinion, is distinguishable from that case. In that case there was an actual cash payment made at the time of the giving of the chattel mortgage.
