Practical Information

Note: Some of this information was last updated in 1982

The transfer of a written instrument in a manner that makes the transferee the holder of the instrument. If payable to order, an instrument is negotiated by endorsement and delivery; if payable to bearer, by delivery alone. An instrument is not negotiated until it is transferred by the person to whom it is issued. Thus A make a note payable to B and delivers it to him. Subsequently, by negotiation, B transfers the note to C, and C to D, and so on. As opposed to transfer by assignment (in U.S. law), the innocent transferee by negotiation takes the paper free of defenses that are good against the transferor. See also negotiable instrument (in U.S. law).
