| 单词 | Positive covenant |
| 释义 | 積極性契諾 A covenant to expend money, or do something or which is otherwise positive in nature: Conveyancing and Property Ordinance (Cap 219) s 41(6). At common law, the burden of a positive covenant does not run with the land: Austerberry v Oldham Corp (1885) 29 Ch D 750 (CA). In Hong Kong, the traditional equitable doctrine has been extended by allowing the enforcement of positive covenants: Conveyancing and Property Ordinance (Cap 219) s 41(2). This is necessary in respect of covenants in a deed of mutual covenant affecting common ownership of a multi-storey building: Wong Kam Lan v Well Win Investment Ltd [1996] 2 HKC 143. However, an occupier will not be liable to the covenantee or his successors in title for breach of a positive covenant merely because he is an occupier at the material time. There has to be something more than occupation to make him liable, such as a covenant contained in his lease. It is not enough that there is a covenant in a Deed of Mutual Covenant binding on the lessor: Discovery Bay Services Management Ltd v David Buxhaum [1995] HKDCLR 7. See also Restrictive covenant. 契諾是支出金錢、作出事情或在其他方面性質積極的契諾：《物業轉易及財產條例》（第219章）第41(6)條。就普通法而言，積極性契諾的負擔不隨土地：Austerberry v Oldham Corp (1885) 29 Ch D 750 （英國上訴法院）。在香港，傳統的衡平法原則，已被延展致允許強制性執行積極性的契諾：第41(2)條。這就影響多層建築物的共同擁有權的有關公契中的契諾是有需要的：Wong Kam Lan v Well Win Investment Ltd [1995] 3 HKC 381。然而，佔用人不會因為他在關鍵時間是佔用人而需向契諾受益人或其業權繼承人承擔上法律責任。要他承擔法律責任，必須有一些佔用以外的東西，如租約上包含這樣的契諾。僅在公契上的契諾不足以對他產生約束力：Discovery Bay Services Management Ltd v David Buxhaum [1995] HKDCLR 7。另見 Restrictive covenant。 |
