Dearle v Hall (1828)
Last modified: Thu Feb 23 16:37:37 2006
(1828) 3 Russ 1. The beneficial owners of a trust of land mortgaged their
beneficial interest to two different mortgagees. The quesion arose which
mortgage had priority. It was held that the deciding factor was the order in which
the mortgages
had been notified to the trustees, regardless of the order in which
the mortgage was granted.
This principle was subsequently extended to all assignments of a beneficial
interest by s.137 of the LPA1925.
