Cheques – Block Payment – Sale of Goods – Goods not supplied – Transfer of title – Interim Order – Guarantee
This case involved the denial of an interim order to block the payment of cheques until the settlement of a claim. The cheques had been a guarantee but the goods had not been supplied. The claim would need to be determined on the issue of transfer of title by endorsement, preventing any claims against a valid bearer, whether the original obligations under the cheques survived or not.
