Definitions from Case Law
From 201 U.S. 344 - York Manufacturing Company v. Arthur Cassell J B · 1906Most cited · 665 citing opinions
the statute would render the unfiled contract void as to the same class of creditors mentioned in the chattel mortgage statute. Therefore the contract would be void as to creditors who, before its filing, had 'fastened upon the property' by some specific liens. As to creditors who had no such lien, being general creditors only, the statute does not avoid the sale, which is good between the parties to the contract.
