The notion of mortgaging property is an acutely oldish one. In medieval England, the
moneylender often secured borrowed fluid assets by taking earthly dominion of the
property. Such proprietary include proprietary as a holder or custody
with full title deeds as well. In either case the bank took possession of the
physical land itself. If the bread borrowed was refunded at the appropriate time, the
bestower returned hold to the borrower. If the bread was not repaid, the
bank kept control for the whole of the charter term or, if he or she held title
itself, forever; the borrower lost his or her right to get the property back. Because
the moneylender already had proprietary of the property, no court or other such
proceeding was needed to fasten the lender’s right to the property.
Antiquated courts, famous as common law courts, were complete in the carrying out of
payment obligations. If the borrower did not pay at the named time, he or she
lost the property and could not regain it. The right to redeem (or make up for) the
property was only securable if the borrower executed surely as he or she had
arranged to act out. It did not matter either the borrower was only a bit at the last minute or
whether the property was worth much more than the money owed to others.
These hard-shell rules of the archaic common law tribunal were tempered over the
centuries by rules advanced in a court called the Court of Appellate court, which
reaped reputation in England some time after the 14th century. The Chancery
court grown and brought to bear rules that mediated borrowers more liberally. That
court’s rules came to be known as rules of equity or civility.
For centuries, in Commonwealth of nations, two absolute kinds of tribunal, the old common law courts
and the Chancery courts, conducted as different court systems with particular sets of
rules. Abundance of the rules that form the gross of our mortgage laws were advanced
in the Chancery courts. They are generally referred to as do’s and don’ts of equity, which
usually dealt with issues of justice. The borrower’s right to benefit off the
mortgage and gain the title and ownership even after an evade is such a rule.
Presently, we still speak of a borrower’s equity of reclamation. This equity rule
in conclusion binding English law and practice to the position that even though a
lender had title and proprietary to the land, the moneylender (to assure he or she had
unassailable title) would file suit for foreclosure. In that suit the moneylender would call upon the
court to foreclose (or eliminate) the borrower’s right to make good the title unless he or
she paid up within a logical limit of opportunity.
In England, the common law courts and equity courts were hitched in 1873. In
Canadian common law provinces there is a single court that applies both
common law and equity rules. Some description of the plan of common law is valuable at this point. Common
law has both a narrow and a wider meaning. When referring to courts in an
classical context, it has the narrow meaning of the main kind of English court
that co-existed with but was apparent from the Chancery court before 1873. When
referring to case-made act, or precedent law, common law has the deeper
interest of all such code, both that which comes out of the equity courts and that
which comes out of the older non-equity cout.
