Judgement of Dika No. 1477/2541 Even the documents nominated jointly by the plaintiff and co-defendants was a rental agreement at the time of programming and advertising products on television of Thailand,  Public Relations Department, but the action the Plaintiff did not deliver any property to co-defendants so that the co-defendants utilized or getting benefit in the property, the programming and advertising products of co-defendants as agreed with the plaintiff, the plaintiff was a programmer or served for all, even co-defendants would give remuneration as money to the plaintiff for that., then the agreement that co-defendants agreed to hire the time for programming and advertising products on the television station from the plaintiff was not agreement to hire property, but it was the agreement to offer service of broadcast and picture widespread of the station of the plaintiff on the agreed schedule with remuneration, it deemed that the plaintiff was a trader who accepted the said working for co-defendants, when legal relationship between the plaintiff and co-defendants was not property rent, then the plaintiff would call for remuneration from programming and advertising products as agreed by co-defendants was not calling for rent of movable property according to Civil and Commercial Code, Section 193/34(6). 

The seller was no need to be the owner of property to be sold during making agreement, but the ownership on property had to be transferred to the buyer, see Dika No. 3763/2542. 

Judgement of Dika No. 3763/2542 The circumstance of the first plaintiff agreed to make agreement of sale the disputed care  to the plaintiff to take the car to Mr. Sor. for hire-purchase again was a method of dong business. The first defendant and the plaintiff used to do like this many times, so the plaintiff even knew that the first defendant was not the said disputed car’s owner while making agreement, the first plaintiff had to be bound to the agreement showing intention, the cite of bad motive with collusion with the plaintiff to be fictitious or swindling to others misunderstood because the seller was no need to be the owner of property during making agreement.

Judgement of Dika No. 519/2541 According to Sale Agreement of Disputed Condominium between the plaintiff and the defendant with no article specified the plaintiff’s duty to be a provider of source of loan for the plaintiff. The sale office of the defendant has an advertisement of various financial institutes to persuade the defendant’s customers to load, it was the matter of financial institutes to advertise for customers, there was no effect of binding to the defendant to provide financial institutes to the plaintiff, even the defendant’s employees would call for evidence from the plaintiff in order to contact financial institutes for the plaintiff, then it was the case of offering convenience to the plaintiff for benefit of selling condominium of the defendant more than the defendant to bind in agreement to provide source of loans for the plaintiff. The documents sent to the defendant by the financial institutes to express pleasure and support customers who bought the defendant’s condominium was not the document to be assured that the defendant had agreement to provide source of loans to the plaintiff. 

Judgement of Dika No. 76/2496 Sale of Car, the seller had delivered the care to the buyer already, but the buyer said it was not enough, it had to be certified at The Police Registration Department that the car sold to the buyer already for registration in car manual to transfer to be the buyer’s name. The seller did not go and cited that duty of sale had just transfer ownership and deliver. The Supreme Court told that not enough, except delivery car to the buyer, the seller also had a duty to certify to The  Police Registration Department that the ownership had been transferred  to the buyer already for that the authority would accept registration to the buyer even the registration would not the evidence of title, then it was the necessity to utilize the car.

The buyer’s other duty was a duty of agreement such as selling a house, then the buyer and the seller agreed to paint the house from white to green, is the duty as per agreement. The duty of agreement was not hard, what to make promise, then the article of agreement had to be follow and bind to the agreement. 

Judgement of Dika No.  6848/2540 Buy a piece of land only the piece of the defendant, when register to transfer ownership, the plaintiff was a co-owner, but the defendant still had a duty of agreement to do cadastral survey to separate the piece of land to the plaintiff.  

Eviction

Judgement of Dika No. 1885/2531 Compliance to the stranger requested according to Civil and Commercial Code, Section 481 must be compliance with voluntarily. The case that the Customs Official seized the car bought by the plaintiff from the defendant citing power of law, was not compliance to the stranger  according to Section 481, therefore the defendant’s liability who sold the care was not in prescription as per the said Section, but the case of general prescription  as per Section 164 (corresponding to Section 193/30 New).

Judgement of Dika No. 390/2518(Conference) Compliance to the stranger requested according to Section 481, provided prohibition to sue in the statement of liability for eviction, when elapse 3 months, it must be compliance with voluntarily. Th case that the police seized the motorcar from the plaintiff by virtue of law that the plaintiff must be in compliance to be seized or else the plaintiff must bear criminal faults. In case the plaintiff did not comply to the stranger requested within 3 months prescription according to Civil and Commercial Code, Section 481 but it must be in prescription according to Section 164 which has its 10 years prescription. 

Compare to Dika 2367/2516 The plaintiff and the defendant had their occupation of accepting to sale, buy, exchange for cars, the defendant bought the care from Mr. Sor, then sold to the plaintiff, after that the police seized that car from the plaintiff saying to the plaintiff that that car Mr. Sor embezzled  from real owner’s and suggested the plaintiff to return the car to the owner, and the plaintiff to claim for damages from the defendant. The plaintiff agreed to deliver the car to the police and the plaintiff said to demand from the defendant himself. Therefore it deemed that the buyer complied to the stranger to request as prescribed in Civil and Commercial Code, Section 481 already. When the plaintiff sued the defendant to make payment for car over 3 months from the date of car seized, then the case had no prescription.  

It can be seen that as per Dika No. 2367/2516 was the case of plaintiff’s accord to deliver to the police, it was the case of the plaintiff complied to stranger requested with 3 months prescription, Section 481, but in Dika 390/2518 was the case of the police seized the car, not the case of Section 481 with 10 years prescription as per Section 164.  

In case the seller could not transfer ownership to the buyer because the seller was not the owner in that property and caused damage to the buyer and the buyer had to return money to the buyer subsequently, the buyer could sue for damages from the seller, not the case of eviction, not in prescription of Section 481, see Dika No. 4366/2539. 

Non-performance of the hire-purchaser until causing rescission of contract; that was expense of property all the time of possession tacit of Civil and Commercial Code, Section 391, paragraph 3 only, and if the property returned damaged, then the hire-purchaser must bear liability except damage caused from utilizing that property lawfully as well.   

Judgement of Dika No. 985/2532 If there was rescission of hire-purchase contract from the hire-purchaser’s default did not make payment of hire-purchase, then hire-purchaser had his right to possess that car, confiscate hire-purchase payment and had the right of claim for expense of  property all the time of possession tacit. Thereafter the rescission of hire-purchase contract of Civil and Commercial Code, Section 391, paragraph 3, if the returned property damaged, then the hire-purchaser had to take liability except the damage caused from utilizing the property lawfully and had to take liability for expenses to follow the car of hire-purchase returned from the hire-purchaser.

Judgement of Dika No. 3358/2530 Civil and Commercial Code, Chapter 3.Type 5, mentioned to hire-purchase, not providing on prescription directly, but the cost of hire-purchase was the rent from utilizing property; therefore the hire-purchaser who was a trader sue for the outstanding rent of movable property (Television set), the case had to be sued within 2 years prescription pursuant to Civil and Commercial Code, Section 165 (6), not 10 years pursuant to Civil and Commercial Code, Section 164. 

Judgement of Dika No. 192/2512 In case the hirer terminated the agreement and called the hire-purchaser returned the hire-purchased property, if couldn’t return, then the price should be replaced, it is the owner gave the right to follow the property to be returned within 10 year prescription.  

Judgement of Dika No. 601/2513 When the hire-purchaser was in default, the hirer had only right of confiscation to the rent received with the right to call for the hire-purchased property, couldn’t call for outstanding rent, just expense of property utilized by the hire-purchaser all the time of possession, if the hire-purchased property damaged from other causes except from utilizing the hire-purchased property lawfully, then the hirer could call for damages and sued for damages with 10 years prescription.  

Judgement of Dika No. 3944/2535 The hire-purchase contract defined that the hire-purchaser had to pay the rent of hire-purchase pursuant to the term of 36 installments. If the hire-purchaser was in default to pay any installment, it deemed that the contract was terminated, but it is appeared that the 1stdefendant paid the 1st installment to 10th installment were more delayed than in contract all the time, but the plaintiff accepted for payments without objection, it is shown that in practice the plaintiff and 1stdefendant did not deemed term of hire-purchase payments pursuant to contract as significant matters as follows when the 1st defendant did not settle  11st installment, it would deemed that the 1st defendant was in default and the contract should not be terminated pursuant to this agreement. In this case, if the plaintiff had a purpose to terminate the contract, the plaintiff had to notice to the 1st defendant to settle the rent of hire-purchase within reasonable term pursuant to Civil and Commercial Code, Section 387, when the 1stdefendant did not settle payment, the plaintiff could terminate the agreement. However, the car seized by the plaintiff from 1st defendant because of the 1st defendant did not settle the rent of hire-purchase next installment and 1st defendant agreed with no argument, this circumstance deemed that both the plaintiff and 1st defendant voluntarily to implied terminate the agreement from the day of seizing the disputed car.

Judgement of Dika No. 1730/2536 The hire-purchase agreement between the plaintiff and the defendant terminated by the plaintiff use his right to terminate the agreement by taking the hire-purchased tractor to return to the plaintiff, not the case of termination by the defendant who did hire-purchase was seized or was garnished or was in custody in bankruptcy case or wrongful conduct of agreement which caused the duty to indemnify to the defendant the outstanding cost of rent to the plaintiff pursuant to the agreement, when the hire-purchase agreement terminated by the defendant used his right to terminate according to this agreement and Civil and Commercial Code, Section 573, both parties had to granted to another party to in statu quo as previously pursuant to Section 391, therefore, even the defendant was overdue of rent to the plaintiff for 3 installments  before termination of this agreement, then the plaintiff had no right to call for overdue of hire-purchase rent before this agreement terminated.  

Judgement of Dika No. 3842/2526 The said hire-purchase agreement which was in default by non-performance by the hire-purchaser just one time or one installment, then the hire-purchaser could terminate that agreement even the it was different from Civil and Commercial Code, Section 574, first paragraph, but this provision is not the law on peaceful or good merit of population to be in effected.   

Judgement of Dika No. 3408/2530 The hire-purchase agreement specified that payment to rent corresponding to the term was significant matter of that agreement, if the hire-purchaser was in default to pay for the rent for 2 installment consecutively or was in default to pay for the rent from 2 installment, then the hire-purchase agreement was quashed immediately, but in practice when the defendant or hire-purchaser did not pay the rent to the plaintiff corresponding to the term specified in the agreement all the time, the plaintiff accepted payment with no disinclination; therefore, it  could be seen that the defendant and the plaintiff had no intention to deem the term of agreement as significant matter, if the plaintiff wanted to terminate the hire-purchase agreement to the defendant, then the plaintiff had to follow the Civil and Commercial Code, Section 387, namely the plaintiff had to inform the reasonable term to the defendant to pay for the outstanding rent, if the defendant did not pay the rent within the term specified, then the plaintiff would terminate the agreement.  

Hire of Property

Lease Agreement is particular right of the Lessee.

Even the lease agreement contained terms of agreement to the lessee to transfer right to lease to other person, the lease agreement was still particular right, could not devolve on the heirs of the lessee, see Dika No. 383/2540.

Judgement of Dika No. 383/2540 Hire of property, the lessor always focused to the lessee’s qualifications whether to be trusted for using hired property and guarding hired property or not; therefore, right of lessee would be in particular state, when the lessee died, then agreement was lapsed, could not devolve on the heirs. The 4th article specified in the agreement that during the agreement was undue, the lessee had his right to transfer the rent to other person, but the remuneration as money should be paid to the lessor was agreement regarding transferring the rent during the lessee was still alive which could be done pursuant to Civil and Commercial Code, Section 544 and was just the person who had his right to bind only with the agreed parties, could not devolve on the hires of the defendant at all.  

There was a case of using right or use power on his own property that would have a problem on tort or not; that was the case of rent the house, but the agreement was expired, but the lessee did not leave the house, then the lessor or house owner could locked the house or not. The lessee was still constrained living in the house expired or the rent was terminated or living by tort, then the person who leased or lived illegally and was tort, but living illegally,  then the house owner could not pull and push him out of the house because the law has defined the solution already that when there was intrusion or living illegally which was tort, the house owner would have sue to oust , then the executing officer would come to force to oust . Sometimes sue to oust is not quick to the house owner’s need, then the house owner locks the house to lockup, putting the lock is not fault, but lockup is freedom miscarriage, but at that time they were not in the house, the lock is put is possible, another case is;

Judgement of Dika No. 3921/2535 When the 1st defendant as a lessor terminated the lease agreement, the agreement shall be lapsed, the plaintiff has no possessory right to utilize the rental place further, the defendant did not supply the electricity, water supply to the plaintiff, then the defendant locked the place from entering to the rental place of the plaintiff was consequent action of the agreement terminated with the suitable term to the plaintiff already, so it was not tort, the plaintiff  has no right to sue for damages from having no income from the business of the plaintiff and compensation paid to the plaintiff’s employee from the date of termination.

In this case was always happens such as the case of shopping center shared the space to the companies and shops to rent for sale goods, when the lessees could not sell well, they did not pay the rent, when the owner told to leave, but  they did not leave, the owner had to cut off electricity and water supply, but the lessees still did not leave even the electricity and water supply was cut, when the lessees returned home to sleep at night, the lessor came to lock over, did not allow the lessees to enter the rental place, then the lessees came to sue for compensation for tort. The case was that the lessor did tort to the lessees or not, when considering Section 420, a point of lessor’s action was wrongful act or not. The case of the lessor cut electricity and water was the power to utilize of the lessor which was the person who asked from the Water Supply Authority and Electricity Authority according to the agreement that he had his duty when another party was not fault. When he was fault and the agreement was terminated lawfully, then cutting electricity and water was not breach of contract, and locking the rental room was the action to the property which was the ownership of the lessor was not trot, therefore, the lessees who was breach the contract could not sue of tort, so it could not listen, the case was dismissal. 

In case the lessee was still in the house, even it was living by tort, if the house owner went to lock, the owner was not fault of tort to do action to the house because the house was of the lessee. But is was tort to person who lived in the house, made him to be detriment of freedom.  If the person was not in the house, but there were belongings pursuant to this Dika, his belongings were kept in the rental room, the lessor could not take them out because locked up with the key was tort or not, the lessor told to take out at suitable period and terminate the agreement lawfully, then the action of not taking those belongs out was unable to help, the lessor had his right to put the key.

Deposit  is an agreement that a person called “depositor” has delivered the property to another person called “depositary” and the depositary agreed to keep that property in his custody, and will return. (Section 657)

Judgement of Dika No. 1621/2534 The defendant agreed to the customer to take his car to park in the space of gas station both daytime and nighttime for temporary without any charge, but if he takes the car out after 6 o’clock, he has to pay 10 baht a car. Taking the car to park and lock the car and keep the key, not deliver the key to the defendant’s employees, possession of car during the car parking in the possession of Sor., even charging for parking is not the case of deposit.

Sale with Right of Redemption

Th results from redemption of deposit.

When redeeming the property from deposit within the term of redemption or the redeemer had deposited property which was redeemed property to the Deposit Office within the term of redemption by waiving right of redemption which has deposited, then the property which is sold with right of redemption was the ownership of the redeemer from the time that the redeemer has redeemed and paid value of redemption or deposit the property which was redeemed property. (Section 492, paragraph 1) 

This provision has been revised in B.E. 2541, the principle previously mentioned that when redeeming the property which was sold with right of redemption, it deemed to ownership has never been to the redeemer at all, it was being that the property which was sold with right of redemption was to be the ownership of the redeemer since the time the redeemed property is paid or the property had been deposited as redeemed property.

Judgement of Dika No. 3655/2538 The mortgagee has not submitted to the court before taking the mortgaged property to do public auction, then right as mortgagee shall not lapsed; therefore, when the mortgaged property is made public auction without mortgage already, the mortgaged obligation shall be paid to the mortgagee firstly.
