| 单词 | Acknowledgment of debt |
| 释义 | 承認債項 An admission that there is a debt outstanding and unpaid: Good v Parry [1963] 2 All ER 59, 2 QB 418 (CA). An acknowledgment of debt makes the time run afresh as from the date of the acknowledgment: Limitation Ordinance (Cap 347) s 23(3). The acknowledgment must be in writing and signed by the person making the acknowledgment, or by his agent, and it must be made to the person, or to an agent of the person, whose title or claim is being acknowledged: s 24. No promise to pay is required to be stated: Good v Parry, supra; Busch v Stevens [1962] 1 All ER 412, [1963] 1 QB 1. An acknowledgment of debt does not create a new cause of action but merely renews an existing cause of action: Busch v Stevens, supra. It is effective even if made after the limitation period has expired: s 25(5). See also Debt; Limitation of actions; Part payment of debt. 承認一筆嘗未還清的欠債：Good v Perry [1963] 2 All ER 59, 2 QB 418（英國上訴法院）。欠債人承認債項後，使申索人的訴訟權在當天重新計算：《時效條例》（第347章）第23(3)條。必須以書面作出承認，並由作出該項承認的人或其代理人簽署。該承認可由上述任何一位人士，向其所有權或申索獲承認的人或其代理人作出：第24條。沒有需要訂明承諾繳款：Good v Parry, 見上文；Busch v Stevens [1962] 1 All ER 412, [1963] 1 QB 1。承認債項不會產生全新的訴訟權，只可視為申索權重頭開始：Busch v Stevens, 見上文。在時效期屆滿後才作出承認債項，仍屬有效：第25(5)條。另見 Debt; Limitation of actions; Part payment of debt。 |
