Promissory Notes
Hi all,
I’ve been doing a deep dive into promissory notes.
There is case law Atkinson vs ATO. Plus an appeal. The guy lost against the ATO twice.
Has anyone had any PN wins?
I’m just a bit hesitant because the BOE Act only says that a PN that is not presented for payment only discharges the liability of the drawer (for BOE) and the indorser (for PN). This is a problem because it does not state that the MAKER of the PN has discharged their liability, which means we are still on the hook for “payment” (of Aussie dollars that do not exist in reality – only the denominations exist).
Anyway, has anyone won against the ATO using PN?
How do we fight the Atkinson vs ATO case law?
