Post-dated cheques, "irregular" indorsement and holdership in due course - African Bank Ltd v Covmark Marketing CC ; African Bank Ltd v Soodhoo 2008 6 SA 46 (D)

Abstract

This judgment of Moosa AJ concerns two separate but related applications (9238/2005 and 10785/2005) which were heard together. A substantial part of the judgment deals with questions of civil procedure and falls outside the scope of this note. As will become apparent below, the focus is on certain aspects of the law of negotiable instruments that formed the crux of Moosa AJ’s judgment.
