- CACV41/1980
The Court held the bills were valid bills of exchange within s.3 despite the insertion "D/A" and specific dates because the due dates were fixed or determinable; the banks had no sufficient evidence of knowledge of the alleged conspiracy to defraud Philippine Customs so the illegality defence was not arguable against the banks, and therefore summary judgment for the plaintiffs was correct; appeals dismissed with costs.
