Summary
This chapter explores a number of misconceptions which have obscured understanding of the law on equitable assignment. In particular, it shows that the perception that an equitable assignment of an equtiable chose in action leads to the ‘dropping out’ of the equitable assignor because such assignor retains ‘no interest whatsoever’ following the assignment misundestands the caselaw.
