| Abstract | The certainty required in conveyancing transactions is not to be lightly compromised. However much circumstances of unconscionability may I in appropriate cases, warrant equity’s intevention on behalf of a purchaser, the role of equity in rescuing a purchaser late with payment, even by only a few minutes I must be carefully circumscribed. The author argues for a cautious and pragmatic approach to such cases. A balance must be struck between the competing considerations of commercial certainty on me one hand, traditionally safeguarded through rigorous rules of the common law, and that of fair play and conscionability on me other. |
