Law of Newspapers on Paras and Subscriptions
Court rulings clarify that subscribers who do not object implicitly renew their subscriptions. Publishers may bill for outstanding amounts before discontinuing delivery. If subscribers neglect to collect papers, they remain responsible until settled. Moving without notifying the publisher shifts responsibility to the subscriber. Refusing a paper or leaving it unclaimed is prima facie evidence of liability. Postmasters failing to inform the publisher can be held liable for subscriptions.
