An assignment for the benefit of his creditors made by a debtor voluntarily, as distinguished from a compulsory assignment which takes place by operation of law in proceedings in bankruptcy. Such constitutes an assignment of a debtor's property in trust to pay his debts generally, in distinction from a transfer of property to a particular creditor in payment of his demand, or to a conveyance by way of collateral security or mortgage.

«Transmission»(comme le terme transfer en anglais) est le terme générique désignant toute opération par laquelle des droits ou des obligations d’une personne sont transférés à une autre. La transmission peut résulter de la volonté ou de la loi. L'«aliénation» est une transmission volontaire de droits(mais non d’obligations) entre vifs ou à cause de mort, alors que la «cession» est une transmission volontaire entre vifs. Le terme «transfert» est surtout réservé à des emplois plus limités(transfert de propriété, de valeurs, de titres). 1, record 4, French, - transmission
