Bought and Sold Notes

Bought and Sold Notes. It is no longer the custom for brokers who have succeeded in making a contract to make any entry in their books save for their own private information, and it is now almost the universal practice to regard the bought and sold notes as the proper evidence of the contract. The broker sends to the seller a 'sold note' and to the buyer a 'bought note,' these being now the usual terms, though formerly their use was sometimes the converse. When each note discloses the name of both parties to the transaction, each is a complete memorandum of the bargain. When each note only discloses the name of one party, the two may be treated as one memorandum. The bought and sold notes are deemed to constitute a single document, and if they differ materially they are nullities unless one has been assented to by the parties as containing the terms of the contract.Every contract note for or relating to the sale or purchase of any stock or marketable security must be stamped when the v...

Goods

Goods, Computer programs are the product of an intellectual process, but once implanted in a medium they are widely distributed to computer owners. An analogy can be drawn to a compact-disc recording of an orchestral rendition. The music is produced by the artistry of musicians and in itself is not a 'good', but when transferred to a laser-readable disc it becomes a readily merchant-able commodity. Similarly, when a professor deliv-ers a lecture, it is not a good, but, when transcribed as a book, it becomes a good. That a computer program may be copyrightable as intellectual property does not alter the fact that once in the form of a floppy disc or other medium, the program is tangible, moveable and available in the marketplace. The fact that some programs may be tailored for specific purposes need not alter their status as 'goods' because the Code definition includes 'specially manufactured goods', Advent Systems Ltd. v. Unisys Corpn., 925 F. 2d 670 3dCir 1991. Associated Cement Compa...
