释义 | 契據 An instrument that has been signed, sealed and delivered that passes an interest, right or property, creates an obligation binding on some persons, or is an affirmation or confirmation of something that passes an interest, right or property: R v Moron (1873) LR 2 CCR 22. At common law, a deed must be written on parchment, vellum or paper and be sealed and delivered. If the company seal was affixed to a deed, there was a presumption that it was regularly fixed and those who asserted the contrary had to prove their case: Gore-Brown on Companies (44th Ed) s 5.8. A deed would be deemed to have been duly executed by the corporation if the deed purported to bear the seal of the corporation affixed in the presence of and attested by its secretary or other permanent officer and a member of the board of directors or other governing body or by two members of the board or body: Conveyancing and Property Ordinance (Cap 219) s 20(1). The chief elements of a deed are the actual description of the instrument, the date, names of the parties, recitals, testatum (for example ‘this deed witnesses’, or similar statement) and testimonium (execution clause). At common law, deeds are either deed polls or indentures. Consideration is not necessary, although equity will not assist a volunteer with specific performance. See also Bond; Contract; Consideration; Deed inter partes; Deed poll; Delivery; Execution; Indenture; Instrument under seal; Recital; Sealing; Special contract; Testatum; Testimonium; Volunteer. 已簽署、蓋章及交付的文書,此等文書的目的在於轉移權益、權利或財產;設定對若干人士具約束力的責任;或確認轉移權益、權力或財產的事物:R v Moron (1873) LR 2 CCR 22。在普通法上,契據必須在羊皮紙、犢皮紙或紙上以書面紀錄,並蓋章及交付。如契據已蓋上公司印章,則推定有關的蓋印已合乎規定,而宣稱蓋印未合乎規定的人須證明他們的論點:Gore-Brown on Companies (第44版)第 5.8節。如任何契據看來蓋有該法團印章,並在加蓋該法團印章時,由該法團的秘書或其他常任人員聯同該法團董事局或該法團其他管理組織其中一名成員,或由該董事局或該管理組織其中2名成員在場核簽,則須當作已由該法團妥為簽立:《物業轉易及財產條例》(第219章)第20(1)條。契據的主要元素包括有關文書的實際描述,日期,契據各方的名稱,敘文、契據正文(例如「本契據茲證明」或類似的陳述)及結尾條款(簽立條款)。在普通法中,契據一般為平邊契據或雙聯契據。契據無需代價,但衡平法不會以強制履行令幫助無因受益人。另見 Bond; Contract; Consideration; Deed inter partes; Deed poll; Delivery; Execution; Indenture; Instrument under seal; Recital; Sealing; Special contract; Testatum; Testimonium; Volunteer。n. |
