EFFECT OF PARTIAL
INDORSEMENT
It doesn't operate as an indorsement.
It may constitute a valid
assignment though binding between the
parties.
The person to whom the instrument is
indorsed would not be considered an indorsee
but merely an assignee and would therefore
take the instrument subject to the defenses
available between the original parties.
EXCEPTION
But where the instrument has been
paid in part, it may be indorsed as to
the residue
KINDS OF INDORSEMENT
1. Special - Also known as direct
endorsement and endorsement in full.
This endorsement specifies the person
to whom or to whose order the
instrument is payable, and the
endorsement of such endorsee is
necessary to the further negotiation of
the instrument.
Example:
(a) B, the holder of the bill, makes an
endorsement on the bill saying Pay C
only. It is a restrictive endorsement as
C cannot negotiate the bill further.
