Fraudulent Transfer/ Insider Preference?
Posted: Tue Jun 21, 2005 9:58 am
My reading of 360 is just the opposite. I read it to say that without a
writing (signed by the party to be charged) which states that a payment
shall be sufficient acknowledgement or promise of a continuing contract,
payment of interest or principal does not start the running of a new period.
