Collier v P & MJ Wright (Holdings) Ltd : ウィキペディア英語版 | Collier v P & MJ Wright (Holdings) Ltd
''Collier v P & MJ Wright (Holdings) Ltd'' () (EWCA Civ 1329 ) is an English contract law case, concerning the doctrine of consideration and promissory estoppel in relation to "alteration promises". ==Facts== Mr Collier was one of three partners of a property developer. They had assented to a court order to pay £46,000 to Wright Ltd in monthly installments of £600, and were jointly liable. From 1999 the payments went down to £200 a month. In 2000, swore Mr Collier, there was a meeting where Wright Ltd said he would be severally liable (for £15,600), rather than jointly (as a partner). The other two partners went bankrupt in 2002 and 2004. In 2006, when Mr Collier had finally made his payments (totalling exactly one third of the debt) Wrights served on him a statutory demand for the 'balance of the debt'. Mr Collier applied under rule 6.4 of the Insolvency Rules 1986 (because the debt was disputable on ‘substantial grounds’ (r.6.5(4)(b)); so he only needed to show there was a ‘genuine triable issue’ in which case the court would set aside the demand. He alleged the variation agreement was binding, or if not that Wright Ltd was estopped from enforcing the full payment.
