Nemo Dat
S21 SGA 1979
What it says No one may transfer what they do not own (subject to the exceptions) as B
acquires no better title to the goods than S
Notes Problem = ‘where goods are sold’ – there must be a CONTRACT OF SALE (not
agreement to sell) – see Shaw (exception 1)
Problem = ‘consent of the owner’ – agent can still tell someone to sell goods


Cundy v Lindsay
Legal Principle S21
Fact Man impersonated a well known brand with the same name in the same street –
ordered linen cheaply, then sold it on to 3rd party who purchased it in good faith,
thinking it was of the brand
Ratio Held – there was no good title to pass, therefore the contract was void
Must be able to show there’s a contract between S1 and B1, otherwise B2 has
no rights to the goods and therefore can’t sell to 3rd party


Jerome v Bentley
Legal Principle S21
Facts S said to B1 that if he could sell a ring within 7 days for over £550, he could keep
anything over that amount for himself
12 days later – B1 sold to B2 for £175, with B2 buying in good faith
Ratio B1 stole the ring as bailee – he intended to fraudulently take them ring and sell it
on
Held – NO property passed, and there is nothing to prevent S1 obtaining title to
them


First exception – Consent of owner

S47(1) SGA
What it says B who is not in possession resells the goods and S assents, B2 obtains good title
from S’s lien or right of stoppage in transit
Stoppage is similar to estoppel, but estoppel needs to be communicated to B2,
whereas S under s47(1) may assent to resale by only communicating his assent
to B1


Mordaunt Bros
Legal Principle Consent of owner
Facts S1 sold to B1, who sold to B2 – B1 said S1 to just deliver to B2 (B1 hadn’t paid)
Ratio Held – NO consent - but because S1 had consented to sale, they have to fulfil
obligations and deliver to B2
Just logging something is NOT consent to sale

Legal Principle Consent of owner
