| 单词 | Receipt |
| 释义 | 收據 A document which acknowledges or expresses the receipt, deposit, or payment of money or goods: A-G (UK) v Northwood Electric Light and Power Co Ltd [1947] KB 511. Receipts are in general only prima facie evidence of payment (Huckle v London County Council (1910) 27 TLR 112 (CA)), and can be contradicted by proof that the money was not in fact paid (Skaife v Jackson (1824) 3 B & C 421), that the transaction was fraudulent (Farrar v Hutchinson (1839) 9 Ad & El 641), that the terms of the receipt do not accurately state the transaction (Nathan v Ogdens Ltd (1905) 93 LT 553) that the money was in fact paid by another person (Graves v Key (1832) 3 B & Ad 313), or that the receipt was given ‘without prejudice’ (Oliver v Nautilus Steam Shipping Co Ltd [1903] 2 KB 639 (CA). In some cases, however, a receipt may amount to a contract, the terms of which are embodied in it (Roberts v Eastern Counties Rly Co (1859) 1 F & F 460), and, apart from any question of contract, a receipt will be conclusive in cases where it operates as an estoppel. Receipts twenty years old prove themselves if produced from proper custody: Bertie v Beaumont (1816) 2 Price 303. 2. Taking physical possession or acquiring goods. See also Debt; Estoppel; Seal. 1. 確認或說明收據，存款或款項或貨物償付的文件: A-G (UK) v Northwood Electric Light and Power Co Ltd [1947] KB 511。概括而言，收據只是付款的表面證據 (Huckle v LCC (1910) 27 TLR 112 （上訴法院）)，及可以證據反駁：即事實上沒有付款(Skaife v Jackson (1824) 3 B & C 421)，即有關的交易有欺詐成份(Farrar v Hutchinson (1839) 9 Ad & El 641)，即收據的詞語並未能準確地表達有關的交易(Nathan v Ogdens Ltd (1905) 94 LT 126（上訴法院）)，即事實上由他人繳付有關的款項 (Graves v Key (1832) 3 B & Ad 313)，或即收據在「不損害」的情況下作出(Oliver v Nautilus Steam Shipping Co Ltd [1903] 2 KB 639（英國上訴法院）。但在若干案件，收據可等於合約，合約的條款已包含在收據內 (Roberts v Eastern Counties Rly Co (1859) 1 F & F 460) ，及除任何合約的問題，在收據作為不容反悔運作的情況下， 收據具有決定性。如由適當的保管處提供，二十年的收據可獲證明：Bertie v Beaumont (1816) 2 Price 303。 2. 獲得物質上的管有或取得貨物。另見 Debt; Estoppel; Seal。n. |
