Full Court Upholds Moratorium Act Impact on Mortgage Covenants

The Full Court in Sydney ruled that the Moratorium Amend ment Act of 1982 revived the personal covenant clause in mortgagee cases. The decision, arising from a suit by Motor Discounts Ltd against Sir Joynton Beith for 2100 pounds, held the moratorium can preserve covenants and allow remedies by mortgagees without new proceedings if the covenant survived. The court noted section 1037 of the 1931 Act grants express continuity, affecting mortgages executed at any time and potentially enabling enforcement of covenants without court action unless survivors were clearly voided.
