I have called the office repeatedly to no avail- Several neighbors who had the same work done have had the same experience. I pay monthly installments and informed the bank but have had no 4-eply from them either. What can I do? E. S. A. To precisely define your rights, it would be necessary to examine the documents executed in connection with the trans action. Assuming that the con tract you mention was separate and apart from the negotiable instrument held byj the bank, as is usually the case in transactions of this kind; your proper action would be a suit in assumpsit against the contractor for breach of his contractual warranty. If the door is wholly unsatisfactory, your measure of damages would be the contract price of the door, since you have promptly notified the contractor of its defective condition. Assuming that the note was negotiated fo the bank'so that it .became >a (holder in due course, you would be required to continue the payments on the note in accordance with its terms. You should take the pertinent papers to your attorney for proper action He can then, also, take the nee esary step to insure the return of your keys- 1 k «* Q I had my car repaired by a mechanic recommended by - a neighbor- The bill was $36, and because I didn’t" have the ready cash the neighbor suggested I give the garageman my title to hold "as security. The man had me sign a form which I learned several weeks later was an en cumbrance on the car- Now I understand that the neighbor has paid the man s2o' of my bill and the title has been transferred to my neighbor’s name. The neighbor tells me I must pay the garage bill to him plus several dollars interest- I re fuse to do this because I want to deal solely with the garageman, blit the. garageman says he will accept money only as an agent for the neighbor. Is he within his rights’ R- !<• A. Without knowing just what was on the ‘form” that you sign ed—and you should have known, and kept a copy—a direct answer to your problem is difficult. If, as you say, you signed an “en cumbrance,” the garage man could not have transferred the title to your neighbor until after he had taken the proper action against you, and you would have notice of this. If the “encumbrance” was orig inally given to the garage man you should deal with him until he gives you notice of a valid assignment of this claim to your neighbor, and also evidence of his authority to act' as your neighbor’s- agent.
