Commercial Law (Classic Reprint)


Book Description

Excerpt from Commercial Law The author of this work has aimed to select from the exten sive field of the law those fundamental principles, a knowledge of which the business man will most frequently find of value to him, and which the teacher of Commercial Law will regard most useful to his classes. It is not the purpose of this volume to make lawyers of its readers, but to teach them to discern the ways that lead from litigation, and to enable them to conduct their business dealings with an intelligent idea of their legal rights and limitations. Technical terms have been avoided as far as possible, and when it has been thought advisable to use them they have been fully defined either in the text or in the glossary. The latter contains a most complete list of the legal terms ordinarily em ployed, with concise yet sufficient definition. The subjects discussed have been arranged in the order in which it is deemed advisable for the teacher to present them. It is believed that all of the subjects with which the business man should become familiar have been included in the present volume, and are explained with sufficient detail to give the reader a correct knowledge of the law concerning them. In many instances different conclusions that have been arrived at by the courts in the several states have been pointed out in detail, that the student may understand the conflicts in the laws of the different jurisdictions.

New Commercial Law (Classic Reprint)


Book Description

Excerpt from New Commercial Law Common Law is a term applied to that part of the law of England which was common to the whole country. It was at first merely a body of customs. But came, in time, to have the force of law, and was called the common law to distinguish it from those laws which applied only to a portion of the country. The common law is sometimes called the unwritten law, because, being originally merely a body of customs, it was for a long time not written. As soon as judges began to render their decisions in writing, the common law, being embodied in these decisions, became written, and is now to be found in thousands of vol umes of reports containing the decisions of the courts of this country and England.

A Text Book of Commercial Law, as Existing in California (Classic Reprint)


Book Description

Excerpt from A d104 Book of Commercial Law, as Existing in California In law, more than in any other science, originality is not to be attained. Every principle in this book has been stated before, and perhaps stated better than it is here. The standard text-writers have been liberally con sultedfi Kent's Commentaries, Smith's Mercantile Law, Parson on Con tracts, and the California Codes, have been most freely referred to. The arrangement, the presentation of each subject, and the statement of principles are, however, new, and whatever of merit there may be in these is all that can be claimed for this book.
