Bond
Bond [fr. binda, band, bunden, A. S., to bind], a written acknowledgement or binding of a debt under seal. See DEED. No technical form of words is necessary to constitute a bond; see Gerrard v. Clowes, (1892) 2 QB 11; Strickland v. Williams, (1899) 1 QB 382. The person giving the bond is called the obligor, and he to whom it is given the obligee. A bond is called single (simplex obligatio) when it is without a penalty, but there is generally a condition added, that, if the obligor does or forbears from some act, the obligation shall be void, or else shall remain in full force, and the bond is then called a double or conditional one; see Dav. Prec. Vol. V., pt. Ii., p. 268. When a bond contains a penalty, which is generally double the amount of the principal sum secured, only the sum actually owing, with interest, can be recovered, and in no case can this exceed the amount appearing on the face of the bond. See 8 & 9 Wm. 3, c. 11, s. 8; Re Dixon, (1900) 2 Ch 561.Although it is unnecessa...
Unbounded sugarcane
Unbounded sugarcane, it must be stated however, that neither the expression 'bonded sugarcane' nor 'unbonded sugarcane' has been defined either in the statue or in the U.P. Sugarcane Supply and Purchase Order, 1954 and, therefore, regard must be had to the ordinary dictionary meaning of the said expressions. In shorter Oxford English Dictionary the legal and technical meaning of the expression 'bond' is given as 'a deed by which the obligor binds himself, his heirs, executors, or assigns to pay a certain sum to the oblige.' In stroud's judicial Dictionary (4th Edn.) the expression 'bond' is explained as: an obligation by deed'. It will thus be clear that the expression 'bonded sugarcane' must mean sugarcane secured by a bond or deed. Under the Notification of the Cane Commissioner dated June 1, 1955 certain deductions from the minimum price per maund of cane fixed for the season 1954-55 had been notified in respect of the 'Unbonded sugarcane' crushed on or after May 1, 1955 In other wo...
Deed of Covenant
Deed of Covenant. Covenants are frequently entered into by a separate deed for the indemnity of a purchaser or mortgagee, or for some other special purpose. A covenant with a penalty is sometimes taken for the payment of a debt, instead of a bond with a condition, but the legal remedy is the same in either case....
bond
bond 1 a : a usually formal written agreement by which a person undertakes to perform a certain act (as appear in court or fulfill the obligations of a contract) or abstain from performing an act (as committing a crime) with the condition that failure to perform or abstain will obligate the person or often a surety to pay a sum of money or will result in the forfeiture of money put up by the person or surety ;also : the money put up NOTE: The purpose of a bond is to provide an incentive for the fulfillment of an obligation. It also provides reassurance that the obligation will be fulfilled and that compensation is available if it is not fulfilled. In most cases a surety is involved, and the bond makes the surety responsible for the consequences of the obligated person's behavior. Some bonds, such as fidelity bonds, function as insurance agreements, in which the surety promises to pay for financial loss caused by the bad behavior of an obligated person or by some contingency over w...
