Co-operative Wholesale Society v Ravenseft
Rule: Inhibition restricts dealing with heritable property.
Hook: lease allowed the landlord to redevelop and break the lease, but the landlord had no genuine intention or ability to carry out the redevelopment. The court held the landlord could not rely on the break clause, as it must be exercised in good faith for its proper purpose, not merely to remove the tenant.
Freeze v Northern Bank Ltd (if discussed)
Rule: Arrestment catches debts in the hands of third parties.
Hook: A wife guaranteed her husband’s bank debts and later claimed undue influence. The court held the bank was not liable, as it had no notice of any undue influence and there was no duty then to warn or advise simply because of a husband-and-wife relationship.
