13-105 - Effect of transfer of claim or demand.

§ 13-105. Effect  of  transfer  of  claim  or demand. Where a claim or  demand can be transferred, the  transfer  thereof  passes  an  interest,  which  the transferee may enforce by an action or special proceeding, or  interpose as a defense  or  counter-claim,  in  his  own  name,  as  the  transferrer  might  have  done; subject to any defense or counter-claim,  existing against the transferrer, before  notice  of  the  transfer,  or  against  the  transferee.  But  this  section  does not apply, where the  rights or liabilities of  a  party  to  a  claim  or  demand,  which  is  transferred, are regulated by special provision of law; nor does it vary  the  rights  or liabilities of a party to a negotiable instrument, which  is transferred.
