EXETER {I/P761,,i ,--oret • FUNERAL HOME 370 W11111\g-ST: '' 235-1220 EXETER While in Toronto on business, recently, I parked my car at a downtown parking lot. When I returned to pick it up I was horrified to see that one of my front headlights had been all smashed in. I assumed that it was the parking lot's responsibility to look after my car while in their care; their rates to park are certainly high enough! Anyway, when I spoke to the lot manager, he claim- ed NO RESPONSIBILITY and promptly pointed to a sign on the front of the booth. The sign read, "We are not responsible for any loss or damage whatsoever, however caused, whether by fire, theft or negligence." He also• drew my attention to my ticket on which was printed the same notice. He then told me that this was part of the contract, and that he has absolutely no liability. I reminded him that I didn't sign a thing, so it couldn't be a contract. Who is right? ft would appear from what you have told us that the lot manager or owner is in the clear, because you don't have to sign anything to form a contract. If reasonable efforts have been made by the lot owner, by posting a sign or signs to in- form you of the terms on which you can park your car, you are bound by the terms he posts, whether or not you read it or sign anything.

I was in quite a bit of trouble financially at that time, and I have to admit that had a lot to do with me leaving the province. Well, I've made a brand new start now and my in- tentions are to return here, but I'm still a bit apprehen- sive about these old debts. I have heard from various sources that they are not collectible after a certain number of years, and I was wondering if you could tell me how many years? Ontario has a statute of limitations with respect to civil matters, It is called the Limitations Act. It sets out times • beyond which certain civil obligations cannot be enforced. These include: 6 years for any arrears of rent or damages for arrears of rent; 20 years, action to enforce any judgment which a court has granted against you; 20 years for a suit or a bond, or other contract under seal; 6 years for a suit for trespass or any simple contract (such as a contract for the purchase of a car); 7 year to sue for damages or death caus- ed by a motor vehicle; 6 years to sue on a cheque or promissory note. But you should also be aware that old debts may be reviv- ed if you should sign written acknowledgement of in- debtedness. Exeter Ben 509 MAIN STREET ORIGINAL Flowers & Gifts i'.."Th OIL PAINTINGS \ Frti‘ BUY OR LEASE J. L. HOOGENBOOM 235 - 1:3&•.2.1,1 1 1 I saw a painting in a store that I really liked. It was priced at $125, and since I didn't have that much cash with me, I made out a cheque for the full amount. The man in the store told me that he would have the frame made for it within a few days and he would let me know when to come in and pick it up. Well, later on I had second thoughts about the pain- ting, so I stopped payment on my cheque and phoned the store. The man there was pretty nasty and says he'll sue me unless I make him out a new cheque. Does he have the right to do this? The rule in law is that property in goods passes when par- ties intend to pass. If is not necessary for possession to pass for a change of ownership to occur. Where there is no clear intention, and where the sale is of some specific article, then the property passes when the contract is made, regardless of when pay- ment or delivery takes place. It follows, then that you are the owner of the painting, and are obliged to pay for it. We get results!
