BLANK INDORSEMENT
(bouvier) | BLANK INDORSEMENT, contracts. An indorsement which does not mention the name

name of the indorser on the back of the bill. Chit. Bills, 170.
2. When a bill or note has been indorsed in blank, its negotiability
cannot afterwards be restrained. 1 Esp. N. P. Cas. 180; 1 Bl. Rep. 295. As
many persons as agree may join in suing on a bill when indorsed in blank;
for although it was given to one alone, yet by allowing the others to join
in the suit, he has 'Made them sharers in his rights. 8 Camp. N. P. Cas.
239. Vide Indorsement; Negotiable paper; Restrictive indorsement.
|
INDORSEE
(bouvier) | INDORSEE, contracts. The person in whose favor an indorsement is made,
2. He is entitled to all the rights of the indorser, and, if the bill
or note have been indorsed over to him before it became due, he may be
entitled to greater rights than the payee and indorser would have had, had
he retained it till it became due, as none of the parties can make a set-
off, or inquire into the consideration of the bill which he then holds. If
he continues to be the holder (q.v.) when the bill becomes due, he ought to
make a legal demand, and give notice in case of non-acceptance or non-
payment. Chitty on Bills, passim.
|
INDORSEMENT
(bouvier) | INDORSEMENT, crim. law, practice. When a warrant for the arrest of a person
charged with a crime has been issued by a justice of the peace of one
county, which is to be executed in another county, it is necessary in some
states, as in Pennsylvania, that it should be indorsed by a justice of the
county where it is to be executed: this indorsement is called backing. (q.v.)
INDORSEMENT, contracts. In its most general acceptation, it is what is
written on the back of an instrument of writing, and which has relation to
it; as, for example, a receipt or acquittance on a bond; an assignment on a
promissory note.
2. Writing one's name on the back of a bill of exchange, or a
promissory note payable to order, is what is usually called, an indorsement.
It will be convenient to consider, 1. The form of an indorsement; and, 2.
Its effect.
3.-1. An indorsement is in full, or in blank. In full, when mention
is made of the name of the indorsee; and in blank, when the name of the
indorsee is not mentioned. Chitty on Bills, 170; 13 Serg. & Rawle, 315. A
blank indorsement is made by writing the name of the indorser on the back; a
writing or assignment on the face of the note or bill would, however, be
considered to have the force and effect of an indorsement. 16 East, R. 12.
when an indorsement has been made in blank any after attempt to restrain the
negotiability of the bill will be unavailing. 1 E.N. P. C. 180; 1 Bl. Rep.
295; Ham. on Parties 104.
4. Indorsements may also be restrictive conditional, or qualified. A
restrictive indorsement may restrain the negotiability of a bill, by using
express words to that effect, as by indorsing it "payable to J. S. only," or
by using other words clearly demonstrating his intention to do so. Dougl.
637. The indorser may also make his indorsement conditional, and if the
condition be not performed, it will be invalid. 4 Taunt. Rep. 30. A
qualified indorsement is one which passes the property in the bill to the
indorsee, but is made without responsibility to the indorser; 7 Taunt. R.
160; the words commonly used are, sans recours, without recourse. Chit. on
Bills, 179; 3 Mass. 225; 12 Mass. 14, 15.
5.-2. The effects of a regular indorsement may be considered, 1. As
between the indorser and the indorsee. 2. Between the indorser and the
acceptor. And, 3. Between the indorser and future parties to the bill.
6.-1. An indorsement is sometimes an original engagement;as, when a
man draws a bill payable to his own order, and indorses it; mostly, however,
it operates as an assignment, as when the bill is perfect, and the payee
indorses it over to a third person. As an assignment, it carries with it all
the rights which the indorsee had, with a guaranty of the solvency of the
debtor. This guaranty is, nevertheless, upon condition that the holder will
use due diligence in making a demand of payment from the acceptor, and give
notice of non-acceptance or non-payment. 13 Serg. Rawle, 311.
7.-2. As between the indorsee and the acceptor, the indorsement has
the effect of giving to the former all the rights which the indorser had
against the acceptor, and all other parties liable on the bill, and it is
unnecessary that the acceptor or other party should signify his consent or
knowledge of the indorsement; and if made before the bill is paid, it
conveys all these rights without any set-off, as between the antecedent
parties. Being thus fully invested with all the rights in the bill, the
indorsee may himself indorse it to another when he becomes responsible to
all future patties as an indorser, as the others were to him.
8.-3. The indorser becomes responsible by that act to all persons who
may afterwards become party to the bill.
Vide Chitty on Bills, ch. 4; 3 Kent, Com. 58; Vin. Abr. Indorsement;
Com. Dig. Fait, E 2; 13 Serg. & Rawle, 311; Merl. Repert. mot Endorsement
Pard. Droit Com. 344-357; 7 Verm. 356; 2 Dana, R. 90; 3 Dana, R. 407; 8
Wend. 600; 4 Verm. 11; 5 Harr. & John. 115; Bouv. Inst. Index, h.t.
|
INDORSER
(bouvier) | INDORSER, contracts. The person who makes an indorsement.
2. The indorser of a bill of exchange, or other negotiable paper, by
his indorsement undertakes to be responsible to the holder for the amount of
the bill or note, if the latter shall make a legal demand from the payer,
and, in default of payment, give proper notice thereof to the indorser. But
the indorser may make his indorsement conditional, which will operate as a
transfer of the bill, if the condition be performed; or he may make it
qualified, so that he shall not be responsible on non-payment by the payer.
Chitty on Bills, 179,180.
3. To make an indorser liable on his indorsement, the instrument must
be commercial paper, for the indorsement of a bond or single bill.will not,
per se, create a responsibility. 13 Serg. & Rawle, 311. But see Treval v.
Fitch, 5 Whart. 325; Hopkins v. Cumberland Valley R. R. Co., 3 Watts & Serg.
410.
4. When there are several indorsers, the. first in point of time is
generally, but not always, first-responsible; there may be circumstances
which may cast the responsibility, in the first place, as between them, on a
subsequent indorsee. 5 Munf. R. 252.
|

(bouvier) | QUALIFIED INDORSEMENT. A transfer of a bill of exchange or promissory note

Murph. 138; 1 Bouv. Inst. n. 1138.
|
TO INDORSE
(bouvier) | TO INDORSE. To write on the back. Bills of exchange and promissory notes are
indorsed by the party writing his name on the back; writing one's name on
the back of a writ, is to indorse such writ. 7 Pick. 117. See 13 Mass. 396.
