A case on the practical limitations of spraying about the expression "fixed charge" over all your documents.
:''It is as I have said common ground that, if the security rights are charges at all, they are floating charges. No one has advanced the argument that they merely create flawed assets in the hands of LBF as their primary case. It is advanced mainly as a fallback riposte to LBF’s case that the purported grant of a security right to a grantee other than the grantor’s creditor is conceptually incapable of being a charge, unless supported by a fiduciary obligation of the grantee to exercise it for the creditor’s benefit.'' — Briggs J <br>
