Hypothecation
Hypothecation [fr. hypotheca, Civ. Law, a pledge in which the pledges retained possession of the thing pledged, as distinguished from pignus, where the possession was transferred to the pledge. See Sand. Just; Sith's dict. of Antiq., tit. 'Pignus'], the act of pledging a thing as security for a debt or demand without parting with the possession. There are few cases, if any, in our law where an hypothecation in the strict sense of the Roman Law exists. The nearest approaches, perhaps, are the cases of holders of bottomry bonds, and of seamen to whom wages are due in the merchant service, who have a claim against the ship in rem. But these are rather cases of liens or privileges than strict hypo-thecations. There are also cases where mortgages of chattels are held valid, without any actual possession by the mortgage, but they stand upon very peculiar grounds, and may be deemed exceptions to the general rule.It means a charge in or upon any movable property, existing or future, created by...

Arrangements between debtors and creditors
Arrangements between debtors and creditors. The 125th and 126th sections of the (English) Bankruptcy Act, 1869, which repealed an Act of 1861, allowed liquidation by arrangement and composition with creditors by resolutions passed at similar representative meetings to take the place of proceedings in bankruptcy. The (English) Bankruptcy Act, 1883, having repealed the Act of 1869 without re-enacting these clauses, arrangements with creditors outside the law of bankruptcy became common, and in order to legalize and regulate these arrangements, the (English) Deeds of Arrangement Act, 1887, was passed and amended in 1890 by 53 & 54 Vict. c. 24. The law has now been consolidated by the (English) Deeds of Arrangement Act, 1914 (4 & 5 Geo. 5, c. 47), which repeals the Act of 1887, and also parts of the Bankruptcy and (English) Deeds of Arrangement Act, 1913, and contains practically the whole statute law on the subject. The Act is divided into five parts: (1) defining the deeds of arrangement...
