Distinguish between the following: (c) English mortgage and Usufructuary mortgage
Answer & Explanation:
In an English mortgage, a mortgagor binds himself to repay the mortgaged money on certain date and transfers the mortgaged property absolutely to the mortgagee subject to the proviso that he will re-transfer it to the mortgagor upon payment of the mortgaged money as agreed. In a Usufructuary mortgage, the mortgagor delivers possession of the mortgaged property to the mortgagee who retains the possession until the satisfaction of the debt. The mortgagee will take the usufruct in lieu of the interest or part payment of the principal or partly in payment of interest or partly in part payment of the principal. The mortgagor is not personally liable to pay the debt and the mortgagee is not entitled during the term of the mortgage to demand his mortgage money.
