| 单词 | Forbearance to sue |
| 释义 | 不起訴 One promises not to enforce his or her claim against others. A promise to forbear takes various forms; it may be absolute or for a limited period of time and sometimes time is not specified at all. In case no time is specified by the promisor when making the promise, the promise to forbear is to be understood for a reasonable period of time: Fullerton v Provincial Bank of Ireland [1903] AC 309 (HC). In addition, a forbearance to sue could be implied or expressed: Thomas Lo Contracting Ltd v William Strathearn Dock (HCA 10205/2000, unreported). Forbearance to sue amounts to good consideration for a simple contract: Bills of Exchange Ordinance (Cap 19) s 27; Fortune Focus International Ltd v The (Holdings) Co Ltd [1998] 1 HKLRD 304 (CA). See also Consideration; Sue. 某人承諾不會針對其他人而強制執行其申索。可以不同的形式作出不起訴承諾；可以是絕對的不起訴、或限於有限時段、有時則根本沒有指明時限。凡承諾者在作出承諾時沒有指明該承諾的時限，則其不起訴承諾將理解為在合理的時段內有效：Fullerton v Provincial Bank of Ireland [1903] AC 309 （高等法院）。此外，可以默示或明示的方式作出不起訴承諾：Thomas Lo Contracting Ltd v William Strathearn Dock （高院民事訴訟2000年第10205號，未經彙報）。不起訴相當於簡單合約的妥善代價：《匯票條例》（第19章）第27條；Fortune Focus International Ltd v The (Holdings) Co Ltd [1998] 1 HKLRD 304 （上訴法庭）。另見 Consideration; Sue。 |
