PART 1 | INTRODUCTION 1. Negotiable Instruments - written contracts for
the payment of money; by its form, intended as a substitute for money and intended to pass from hand to hand, to give the holder in due course the right to hold the same and collect the sum due.
5. Promissory Note - unconditional promise to
pay in writing made by one person to another, signed by the maker, engaging to pay on demand or a fixed determinable future time a sum certain in money to order or bearer. When the note is drawn to makers own order, it is not complete until indorse by him. (Sec. 184 NIL). Parties in Promissory Note: Maker - person who promised to pay the amount in the PN Payee - person who is to be paid
Negotiability - right of transferee to hold the instrument and collect the sum due Accumulation of Secondary Contracts instrument is negotiated from person to person
6. Bill of Exchange - unconditional order in
writing addressed by one person to another, signed by the person giving it, requiring the person to whom it is addressed to pay on demand or at a fixed or determinable future time a sum certain in money to order or to bearer. (Sec. 126 NIL).
3. Difference between Negotiable Instruments
from Non-Negotiable Instruments: Negotiable Instruments Contains all the requisites of Sec. 1 Transferred by negotiation Holder in due course may have better rights than transferor Prior parties warrant payment Transferee has right of recourse against intermediate parties Non-Negotiable Instruments Does not contain all requisites of Sec. 1 Transferred by assignment Transferee acquires rights only of his transferor Prior parties merely warrant legality of title Transferee has no right of recourse
Parties in a Bill of Exchange: Drawer - who draws and signs the instrument. Orders the drawee to pay Drawee - person being ordered to pay. Not liable until he accepts Acceptor - the drawee who already accepted the BOE Payee - one whom payment should be made by the acceptor Other Parties in a PN or BOE may include: Indorser Holder Bearer
4. Difference between Negotiable Instruments
and Negotiable Documents of Title: Negotiable Instruments Have requisites of Sec. 1 Have right of recourse against intermediate parties who are secondarily liable Holder in due course may have rights better than transferor Subject is money Instrument itself is property of value Negotiable Documents of Title Have no requisites of Sec. 1 No secondary liability of intermediate parties Transferee merely steps into the shoes of the transferor Subject is goods Instrument is merely evidence of title; thing of value are the goods mentioned in the document
7. Check - bill of exchange drawn on a bank
and payable on demand. (Sec. 185 NIL)
8. Difference between Promissory Note and Bill
of Exchange: Promissory Note Unconditional promise Involves 2 parties Maker primarily liable Only 1 presentment - for payment Bill of Exchange Unconditional order Involves 3 parties Drawer only secondarily liable Generally 2 presentments - for acceptance and for payment
9. Distinctions between a Check and Bill of
Exchange: Check Always drawn upon a bank or banker Always payable on demand Not necessary that it be presented for acceptance Drawn on a deposit The death of a drawer of a check, with knowledge by the banks, revokes the authority of the banker pay Must be presented for payment within a reasonable time after its issue (6 months) Bill of Exchange May or may not be drawn against a bank May be payable on demand or at a fixed or determinable future time Necessary that it be presented for acceptance Not drawn on a deposit The death of the drawer of the ordinary bill of exchange does not May be presented for payment within a reasonable time after its last negotiation.

a. b. c. d. be in writing signed by the drawer contains an unconditional promise or order to pay a sum certain in money be payable on demand or at a fixed determinable future time be payable to order or to bearer (Sec. 1 NIL)
14. Requisites of a Negotiable Bill (BOE) - It must:
10. Distinctions between a Promissory Note and
Check: Promissory Note there are two (2) parties, the maker and the payee may be drawn against any person, not necessarily a bank may be payable on demand or at a fixed or determinable future time a promise to pay Check there are three (3) parties, the drawer, the drawee bank and the payee always drawn against a bank always payable on demand an order to pay
be in writing signed by the drawer contains an unconditional promise or order to pay a sum certain in money be payable on demand or at a fixed determinable future time be payable to order or to bearer the drawee must be named or otherwise indicated with reasonable certainty (Sec. 1 NIL)
a. b. c. d. e. certificates of deposits trade acceptances bonds in the nature of promissory notes drafts which are bills of exchange drawn by 1 bank to another letters of credit
Notes on Section 1 In order to be negotiable, there must be a writing of some kind, else there would be nothing to be negotiated or passed from hand to hand. The writing may be in ink, print or pencil. It may be upon parchment, cloth, leather or any other substitute of paper. It must be signed by the maker or drawer. It may consist of mere initials or even numbers, but the holder must prove that what is written is intended as a signature of the person sought to be charged. The Bill must contain an order, something more than the mere asking of a favor. Sum payable must be in money only. It cannot be made payable in goods, wares, or merchandise or in property. A drawees name may be filled in under Section 14 of the NIL
b. by considering the whole instrument c. by what appears on the face of the instrument and not elsewhere In determining if the instrument is negotiable, only the instrument itself and no other, must be examined and compared with the requirements stated in Sec. 1. If it appears on the instrument that it lacks one of the requirements, it is not negotiable and the provisions of the NIL do not govern the instrument. The requirement lacking cannot be supplied by using a separate instrument in which that requirement which is lacking appears. c. on or at a fixed date after the occurrence of an event certain to happen though the exact date is not certain (Sec. 4 NIL)
Note on Section 4 If the instrument is payable upon a contingency, the happening of the event does not cure the defect (still non-negotiable)
19. General Rule: If some other act is required
interest in installments in installments with acceleration clause with exchange costs of collection or attorneys fees (Sec. 2 NIL)
other than the payment of money, it is nonnegotiable. Exceptions: a. sale of collateral securities b. confession of judgment c. waives benefit of law d. gives option to the holder to require something to be done in lieu of money (Sec. 5 NIL) Note on Section 5 Limitation on the provision, it cannot require something illegal. There are two kinds of judgments by confession: a) cognovit actionem b) relicta verificatione Confessions of judgment in the Philippines are void as against public policy. If the choice lies with the debtor, the instrument is rendered non-negotiable.
17. General Rule: The promise or order should
not depend on a contingent event. If it is conditional, it is non-negotiable. Exceptions: a. indication of particular fund from which the acceptor disburses himself after payment b. statement of the transaction which gives rise to the instrument. (Sec. 3 NIL)
20. The validity and negotiability of an instrument
But an order or promise to pay out of a particular fund is not unconditional Notes on Section 3 The particular fund indicated should not be the direct source of payment, else it becomes unconditional and therefore non-negotiable. The fund should only be the source of reimbursement. A statement of the transaction does not destroy the negotiability of the instrument. Exception: Where the promise to pay or order is made subject to the terms and conditions of the transaction stated.
is not affected by the fact that: a. it is not dated b. does not specify the value given or that any had been given c. does not specify the place where it is drawn or payable d. bears a seal e. designates the kind of current money in which payment is to be made (Sec. 6 NIL)
18. Instrument is payable upon a determinable
it is expressed to be so payable on sight or upon presentation no period of payment is stipulated issued, accepted, or endorsed after maturity (Sec. 7 NIL)
future time if: a. there is a fixed period after sight/date b. on or before a specified date/fixed determinable future time
Note on Section 7 If the time for payment is left blank (as opposed to being omitted), it may properly be considered as an incomplete instrument and fall under the provisions of Sec. 14, 15, or 16 depending on how the instrument is delivered. not intended to be the payee. where the instrument is drawn, made or prepared by an agent, the knowledge or intent of the signer of the instrument is controlling. Where the agent has no authority to execute the instrument, the intent of the principal is controlling
where it is drawn payable to the order of a specified person or to a specified person or his order
24. The date may be inserted in an instrument
It may be drawn payable to the order of: a. a payee who is not a maker, drawer, or drawee b. the drawer or maker c. the drawee d. two or more payees jointly e. one or some of several payees f. the holder of an office for the time being (Sec. 8 NIL) Notes on Section 8 The payee must be named or otherwise indicated therein with reasonable certainty. If there is no payee, there would be no one to indorse the instrument payable to order. Therefore useless to be considered negotiable. Joint payees in indicated by the conjunction and. To negotiate, all must indorse. Being several payees is indicated by the conjunction or.
when: a. an instrument expressed to be payable at a fixed period after date is issued undated b. where acceptance of an instrument payable at a fixed period after sight is undated (Sec. 13 NIL) Effects: any holder may insert the true date of issuance or acceptance the insertion of a wrong date does not avoid the instrument in the hands of a subsequent holder in due course as to the holder in due course, the date inserted (even if it be the wrong date) is regarded as the true date.
25. Subsequent Holder in Due Course not
affected by the following deficiencies: a. incomplete but delivered instrument (Sec. 14 NIL) b. complete but undelivered (Sec. 16 NIL) c. complete and delivered issued without consideration or a consideration consisting of a promise which was not fulfilled (Sec 28 NIL) in Due Course Affected by Abnormality/Deficiency: a. incomplete and undelivered instrument (Sec. 15 NIL) b. maker/drawers signature forged (Sec. 23 NIL)
when it is expressed to be so payable when payable to the person named or bearer payable to order of fictitious or nonexistent person and this fact was known to drawer name of payee not name of any person only and last indorsement is an indorsement in blank (Sec. 9 NIL)
26. Holder
Notes on Section 9 fictitious person is not limited to persons having no legal existence. An existing person may be considered fictitious depending on the intention of the maker or the drawer. fictitious person means a person who has no right to the instrument because the maker or drawer of it so intended. He was
1. Where an instrument is wanting in any material particular: a. Holder has prima facie authority to fill up the blanks therein. b. It must be filled up strictly in accordance with the authority given and within a reasonable time.
c. If negotiated to a holder in due course, it is valid and effectual for all purpose as though it was filled up strictly in accordance with the authority given and within reasonable time. (Sec. 14 NIL) accepting or indorsing. Delivery may be shown to be conditional or for a special purpose only If the holder is a holder in due course, all prior deliveries conclusively presumed valid If instrument not in hands of drawer/maker, valid and intentional delivery is presumed until the contrary is proven (Sec. 16 NIL)
2. Where only a signature on a blank paper was delivered: a. It was delivered by the person making it in order that it may be converted into a negotiable instrument b. The holder has prima facie authority to fill it up as such for any amount. (Sec. 14 NIL) Notes on Section 14 if the instrument is wanting in material particular, mere possession of the instrument is enough to presume prima facie authority to fill it up. material particular may be an omission which will render the instrument nonnegotiable (e.g. name of payee), an omission which will not render the instrument non-negotiable (e.g. date) in the case of the signature in blank, delivery with intent to convert it into a negotiable instrument is required. Mere possession is not enough.
General Rule: Where an incomplete instrument has not been delivered, it will not, if completed and negotiated without authority, be a valid contract in the hands of any holder against any person who signed before delivery. (Sec. 15 NIL) Notes on Section 15 it is a real defense. It can be interposed against a holder in due course. delivery is not conclusively presumed where the instrument is incomplete defense of the maker is to prove nondelivery of the incomplete instrument.
Rules on delivery of negotiable instruments: delivery is essential to the validity of any negotiable instrument 2) as between immediate parties or those is like cases, delivery must be with intention of passing title 3) an instrument signed but not completed by the drawer or maker and retained by him is invalid as to him for want of delivery even in the hands of a holder in due course 4) but there is prima facie presumption of delivery of an instrument signed but not completed by the drawer or maker and retained by him if it is in the hands of a holder in due course. This may be rebutted by proof of non-delivery. 5) an instrument entrusted to another who wrongfully completes it and negotiates it to a holder in due course, delivery to the agent or custodian is sufficient delivery to bind the maker or drawer. 6) If an instrument is completed and is found in the possession of another, there is prima facie evidence of delivery and if it be a holder in due course, there is conclusive presumption of delivery. 7) delivery may be conditional or for a special purpose but such do not affect the rights of a holder in due course. 1)
30. General rule: a person whose signature does
not appear on the instrument in not liable. Exception: a. one who signs in a trade or assumed name (Sec. 18) b. a duly authorized agent (Sec. 19) c. a forger (Sec. 23)
General Rule: Every contract on a negotiable instrument is incomplete and revocable until delivery for the purpose of giving effect thereto a. If between immediate parties and remote parties not holder in due course, to be effectual there must be authorized delivery by the party making, drawing,
31. General rule: an agent is not liable on the
instrument if he were duly authorized to sign for or on behalf of a principal. Requisites: a. he must be duly authorized
b. c. he must add words to his signature indicating that he signs as an agent he must disclose his principal (Sec. 20 NIL) to whose title the forged signature is not necessary Persons who are precluded from setting up the forgery are a) those who warrant or admit the genuineness of the signature b) those who are estopped. Persons who are precluded by warranting are a) indorsers b) persons negotiating by delivery c) acceptors. drawee bank is conclusively presumed to know the signature of its drawer if endorsers signature is forged, loss will be borne by the forger and parties subsequent thereto drawee bank is not conclusively presumed to know the signature of the indorser. The responsibility falls on the bank which last guaranteed the indorsement and not the drawee bank. Where the payees signature is forged, payments made by the drawee bank to collecting bank is ineffective. No debtor/creditor relationship is created. An agency to collect is created between the person depositing and the collecting bank. Drawee bank may recover from collecting bank who may in turn recover from the person depositing.
Note on Section 20 if an agent does not disclose his principal, the agent is personally liable on the instrument.
32. Per Procuration - operates as notice that the
agent has a limited authority to sign. Effects: the principal in only bound if the agent acted within the limits of the authority given the person who takes the instrument is bound to inquire into the extent and nature of the authority given. (Sec. 21 NIL)
33. General rule: Infants and corporations incur
no liability by their indorsement or assignment of an instrument. (Sec. 22 NIL) Effects: no liability attached to the infant or the corporation the instrument is still valid and the indorsee acquires title
34. General rule: a signature which is forged or
made without authority is wholly inoperative. Effects: a. no right to retain b. no right to give a discharge c. no right to enforce payment can be acquired. (Sec. 23 NIL)
Exception: the party against whom it is sought to be enforced is precluded from setting up the forgery or want of authority. Notes on Section 23 Applies only to forged signatures or signatures made without authority Alterations such as to amounts or like fall under Section 124 Forms of forgery are a) fraud in factum b) duress amounting to fraud c) fraudulent impersonation Only the signature forged or made without authority is inoperative, the instrument or other signatures which are genuine are affected The instrument can be enforced by holders
Rules on liabilities of parties on a forged PN a party whose indorsement is forged on a note payable to order and all parties prior to him including the maker cannot be held liable by any holder a party whose indorsement is forged on a note originally payable to bearer and all parties prior to him including the maker may be held liable by a holder in due course provided that it was mechanically complete before the forgery a maker whose signature was forged cannot be held liable by any holder Rules on liabilities of parties on a forged BOE the drawers account cannot be charged by the drawee where the drawee paid the drawer has no right to recover from the collecting bank the drawee bank can recover from the collecting bank the payee can recover from the drawer the payee can recover from the recipient of the payment, such as the collecting bank the payee cannot collect from the drawee bank
the collecting bank bears the loss but can recover from the person to whom it paid if payable to bearer, the rules are the same as in PN. if the drawee has accepted the bill, the drawee bears the loss and his remedy is to go after the forger if the drawee has not accepted the bill but has paid it, the drawee cannot recover from the drawer or the recipient of the proceeds, absence any act of negligence on their part. Effects: an accommodation party is liable to the holder for value notwithstanding that such holder knew that of the accommodation. (Sec. 28 NIL) Notes on Section 28 the accommodated party cannot recover from the accommodation party want of consideration cannot be interposed by the accommodation party an accommodation maker may seek reimbursement from a co-maker even in the absence of any provision in the NIL; the deficiency is supplied by the NCC he may do this even without first proceeding against the debtor provided: a. he paid by virtue of judicial demand b. principal debtor is insolvent
PART 3 | CONSIDERATION 35. Every negotiable instrument is deemed prima
facie to have been issued for a valuable consideration. (Sec. 24 NIL) Effects: every person whose signature appears thereon is a party for value presumption is disputable
PART 4 | NEGOTIATION 39. An instrument is negotiated when:
a. b. it is transferred from one person to another that the transfer must be in a manner as to constitute the transferee a holder For a bearer instrument - by delivery For payable to order - by indorsement and delivery (Sec. 30 NIL)
36. Where value has at any time been given for
the instrument, the holder is deemed a holder for value in respect to all parties who become such prior to that time. (Sec. 26 NIL)
Absence or failure of consideration may be set up against a holder not a holder in due course (personal defense) Partial failure of consideration is a defense pro tanto (Sec 28 NIL)
written on the instrument itself or upon a piece of paper attached (Sec. 31 NIL)
Notes on Section 28 absence of consideration is where no consideration was intended to pass. failure of consideration implies that consideration was intended by that it failed to pass the defense of want of consideration is ineffective against a holder in due course a drawee who accepts the bill cannot allege want of consideration against the drawer
Notes on Section 31 the paper attached with the indorsement is an allonge an allonge must be attached so that it becomes a part of the instrument, it cannot be simply pinned or clipped to it.

Special (Sec. 34) Blank (Sec. 35) Restrictive (Sec. 36) Qualified (Sec. 38) Conditional (Sec. 39)
42. Effects of indorsing an instrument originally
payable to bearer: it may further be negotiated by delivery
the person indorsing is liable as indorser to such persons as to make title through his indorsement (Sec. 40 NIL) Notes on Section 40 Section 40 applies only to instruments originally payable to bearer It cannot apply where the instrument is payable to bearer because the only or last indorsement is in blank Notes on Section 52 every holder is presumed to be a HDC (Sec. 59) the person who questions such has the burden of proof to prove otherwise if one of the requisites are lacking, the holder is not HDC an instrument is considered complete and regular on its face if a) the omission is immaterial b) the alteration on the instrument was not apparent on its face an instrument is overdue after the date of maturity. on the date of maturity, the instrument is not overdue and the holder is a HDC acquisition of the transferee or indorsee must be in good faith good faith means lack of knowledge or notice of defect or infirmity
