How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • holding that one obligor had the power to extend the maturity date of the note, and thereby indirectly extend the running of the statute of limitations, because the underlying instruments vested in that one obligor the power to do so
  • discussing the rationale behind the rule and instances in which a guarantor might agree to assume responsibility for a debtor’s future undertakings
  • The guarantor’s “out-of-state act has had an effect within this jurisdiction sufficient to render him amenable to suit” because it benefitted him at least indirectly and “entities within this jurisdiction relied upon that act.”
  • default alone does not trigger optional acceleration clause
