27 mins confidence: peer agreement (net): +1
peer agreement (net): +1being neither binding on, nor enforceable against, them Explanation: Has been asked at least 6 times before, inc. by the same asker who is right except for the prep. after enforceable. Bill H's answer has popped before I could turn the answer round to: such defences/pleas as the latter may enter .... and which are based on ..... being incapable of being set up against them.

(the defences) cannot be raised against them Explanation: As I said. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 19 mins (2011-01-18 16:02:07 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- See my explanation to your earlier question. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 28 mins (2011-01-18 16:10:26 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- oponible is difficult at first sight. It usually, as here, refers to defences (excepciones) and means they can be raised/argued/put forward etc. in legal process to argue against something. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 30 mins (2011-01-18 16:12:20 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- As I said in my earlier not on this paragraph: This is common in insurance policies. It simply means that the beneficiaries will have a cause of action against the insurance company which cannot raise against the beneficiaries the defences which it may have against the policyholder as a result of matters attributable to the latter. |
