The learned editor [of "Williston on Contracts"] propounds a four-fold classification into: 1. Gratuitous bailments for the bailor's sole benefit. 2. Gratuitous bailments for the bailee's sole benefit. 3. Bailments for mutual benefit. 4. Bailments to which the law, for reasons of policy, attaches exceptional obligations. (Palmer, p. 91)

CONT

Dubinsky J. remarked upon the trend towards clarification or standardisation of the bailee's duty of care and held that the duty in the present case would be the same whether the relationship were one of commodatum, depositum, or bailment for mutual advantage. (Palmer, p. 371)

The holding of a chattel under such circumstances that the law imposes upon the person in possession the obligation to deliver the chattel to another. (Ballentine's, 3rd ed., 1969, p. 255)

CONT

In ... situations involving possession by one of another's goods without mutual consent but without initial wrongdoing on the possessor's part, courts have placed great importance on how the relationship is labelled or characterized. Sometimes the term used is "constructive bailment", which usually connotes a recognition that the relationship really is not a bailment together with a determination that the law of bailments shall be applied nonetheless.

Subject field(s)
  • PAJLO
  • Property Law (common law)
DEF

Delivery, handing over, or giving for a specific purpose. (Oxford, 1933).

CONT

Bailment is essentially a delivery on terms ... In Termes de la Ley it is written: "Bailment is a delivery of things whether it be of writings, goods or stuff to another, sometimes to be delivered back to the bailor, that is to him that so delivered it, sometimes to the use of the bailee, that is to say, of him to whom it is delivered, and sometimes also it is delivered to a third person." (Crossley Vaines, 5th ed., 1973, p. 76).

CONT

(T)he quintessential characteristic of bailment (is) the division of possession and ownership, a division that results in the coexistence of two property rights - the bailor's title and the bailee's possession - in the same object. (Mendes da Costa & Balfour, 1982, p. 125).

CONT

The bailment may be, and generally is, a contract, e.g., for storage and the like, but it may be independent of contract, as where a man becomes a bailee by finding a chattel and taking it into his possession for safe custody ... (Crossley Vaines, supra, p. 70).
