GIVING TIME
(bouvier) | GIVING TIME, contracts. Any agreement by which a creditor gives his debtor a
delay or time in paying his debt, beyond that contained in the original
agreement. When other persons are responsible to him, either as drawer,
endorser, or surety, if such time be given without the consent of the
latter, it discharges them from responsibility to him. 1 Gall. Rep. 32; 7
