Note in particular the finding  in {{casenote|Citigroup|Brigade Capital Management}} — which, in our humble opinion, rather mounts the pavements — sidewalks, sorry — and runs down peacable pedestrians perambulating the [[common law]] of [[contract]] –  that it it makes no difference that, at the time of the mistaken payment, the debt in question was not yet due under the contract.
