The collision clause also provides, in the final paragraph(sometimes known as the "sister ship clause") for the case of two vessels belonging to the same owner coming into collision. In such a case, ship A, having been damaged by ship B owing to the fault of the latter, though entitled to recover from her own underwriter for the actual damage sustained, would not have been able to recover loss of profit while repairing, because the common owner could not sue himself. Cases of this nature are met by the sister ship clause, which provides that, "should the vessel hereby insured come into collision with or receive salvage services from another vessel belonging wholly or in part to the same owners, or under the same management, the assured shall have the same rights under this policy as they would have were the other vessel entirely the property of owners not interested in the vessel hereby insured.

CONT

Back in 1892 legislation was proposed to grant patent rights for plant inventions. This legislation was supported by many prominent individuals, even Thomas Edison who stated that "nothing that Congress could do to help farming would be of greater value and permanence than to give to the plant breeder the same status as the mechanical and chemical inventors now have through the law. "

CONT

Patent for Plant Inventions. In the case for a plant invention, any person who invents a new and distinct variety of plant which reproduces itself asexually may obtain a plant patent therefor.

OBS

The Plant Patent Act was passed by Congress on May 13, 1930 ... It was the first legislation anywhere in the world to grant patent rights to plant breeders and was enacted to "afford agriculture, so far as practicable, the same opportunity to participate in the benefits of the patent system as has been given to industry, and thus assist in placing agriculture on a basis of economic equality with industry."

One of the parties to a contract may, before the time fixed for performance, say that he will not perform, or incapacitate himself from performing. Such conduct is sometimes called "anticipatory breach". The other party then has a choice. He can try to keep the contract alive by continuing to press for performance, in which case the anticipatory breach will have the same effects as an actual breach. Alternatively, he can "accept" the breach, in which case his rights to damages and rescission are governed by certain special rules...

The [land titles legislation has] conferred on a registered proprietor of land what may be called a statutory estate, which is not a merely legal right, but a right both legal and equitable, which courts both of law and equity must recognize : the interest conferred is, indeed, expressly called an "estate", and consists of rights as nearly as possible resembling the rights of persons who have what is ordinarily called an "estate" in the land, but the new registered, or statutory, estate does not operate in the same manner, or on the same principles, as the ordinary "estate".(Anger and Honsberger, 2nd ed., 1985, p. 1608).

In the case of(navigable rivers) the public have a right to use the river for navigation similar to the right which they have to pass along a public highway through private land, and an artificial navigable river may be dedicated as a public highway, but the analogy between a navigable river and a public highway is not complete. In the case of the soil of navigable rivers there may be also public rights incidental to the right of navigation, such as fixing moorings and anchoring. As regards the right of access, it is settled that in general a riparian owner on a navigable river has, subject to the public right of navigation, the same right of access to the river as such an owner has on a non-navigable river.(Gale on Easements, 14th ed., 1972, p. 237).

While there is difference of opinion as to what constitutes privity of estate in relationships outside of that of landlord and tenant, the weight of authority is to the effect that there is privity of estate when the fact of succession is found to have taken place between covenantor and covenantee, as in a grant of an estate in land made by one of the parties to the other. The modern rule seems to be that either mutuality or succession of interrelationship to the same rights of property creates that privity of estate necessary to enable a covenant to run with the land.(Cartwright, 1972, p. 729).

Non-Status Indians are people who consider themselves Indians or members of a First Nation but whom the Government of Canada does not recognize as Indians under the Indian Act, either because they are unable to prove their status or have lost their status rights. Many Indian people in Canada, especially women, lost their Indian status through discriminatory practices in the past. Non-Status Indians are not entitled to the same rights and benefits available to Status Indians.

  • Commercial Law

CONT

The franchise is only one form among many of the commercial concession, and its originality lies more in the terminology used by the parties than in the structure and purpose of the franchise contract. Commercial concessions in the form of distribution agreements are developed as energetically as franchises in fields where the manufacturer's products have distinctive brand names. Like franchise holders, distributors are given exclusive rights of distribution for a specific product or range of products, and undertake the same obligations to promote the products and to attain specified sales targets. In return distributors, like franchise holders, receive assistance from the manufacturer in organising sales and accompanying services, including technical "know how". The idea that a distributor should have an exclusive territory for the sale of the manufacturer's products is characteristic of commercial concessions, rather than franchises, but this idea has lately tended to give way to the more flexible concept of the distributor's zone of principal responsibility. As in the case of the franchise, this refers not so much to a particular geographical area as to the customers who are to be attracted to buying the products in question.

DEF

[...] le contrat liant un fournisseur (le concédant) à un commerçant indépendant (le concessionnaire), auquel il confère dans une zone déterminée, l'exclusivité de la revente de produits de marque, à la condition que le concessionnaire assume certaines obligations et accepte le contrôle du concédant, auprès duquel il s'engage parfois à s'approvisionner exclusivement en produits de même nature.

CONT

[Un] deuxième moyen juridique de monopoliser une clientèle en éliminant toute concurrence est constitué par les accords d'exclusivité au sens large. Tantôt il s'agira d'un producteur qui fera prendre l'engagement à certains clients de s'approvisionner en marchandises déterminées exclusivement chez lui, il s'agit alors d'une exclusivité d'approvisionnement. Tantôt au contraire le producteur assurera à certains commerçants l'exclusivité de distribution de produits ou services sur un territoire déterminé, on sera alors en présence d'une exclusivité de distribution [...]. [L'exclusivité de distribution] permet à un commerçant d'éliminer la concurrence, mais il s'agit cette fois du distributeur d'un produit ou d'un service, qui se voit accorder par le titulaire de la marque une exclusivité territoriale, qui l'assure, dans ce secteur, d'un certain monopole sur la clientèle. Deux techniques contractuelles permettent d'aboutir à ce résultat : la concession commerciale, la franchise commerciale.
