Tender in United States
Tender Definition
(Lat. tender e, to extend, to offer). An offer to deliver something, made in pursuance of some contract or obligation, under such circumstances as to require no further act from the party making it to complete the transfer. As applied to cases of mutual and concurrent promises, means readiness to perform, provided the other party is ready and willing to perform. 143 111. 502. To constitute a valid tender, there must be an actual production (46 Barb. [N. Y.] 227), at the time (90 N. Y. 442) and place (6 Barb. [N. Y.] 258) where the obligation was due, of the full amount (41 Vt. 66), in current funds (34 N. Y. 649) by the person who is under obligation, or his agent (11 Ga. 570), and an offer to the creditor or his agent (46 Barb. [N. Y.] 227) absolutely and without condition, to which the creditor may rightfully object (39 N. Y. 481), of the exact amount due, but tender of an excessive amount is good if no change is asked in return (25 Ind. 261), and the tender must be kept good by continued readiness to pay or deliver the amount or property tendered (24 Vt. 536; 86 111. 431).
