Flemish term

verbintenis van harentwege

Flemish to English Law/Patents Law: Contract(s) Contract for sale of goods
Hi,

I can only find one hit for this on google to give me any type of guidance, otherwise the term "harentwege" is used n in texts in the sense of misconduct which doesn't apply here.

The context is:

Alle aanbiedingen en bestekken van XXX houden op generlei wijze een VERBINTENIS VAN HARENTWEGE in.

I'd be grateful of any input here, it seems to relate to agency but I don´t have enough info to confirm that.

Thanks and have a good weekend
Debbie

Yes, I think you are absolutely right - in the sense of "on its behalf" (XXXX being a company)- well spotted. In my text in the sense of quotations would not be binding on XXX until it had confirmed an order placed. I'll award after 24 hours - thanks very much!!!
Non-ProZ.com Jan 28, 2005:
i.e. if the purchaser in my case purchases from XXX and on-sells to a third party, that third party would not have any recourse against it for problems with the products that XXX supplies.
Non-ProZ.com Jan 28, 2005:
The only other site where I can find a hit for "verbintenis van harentwege" is the following:
De adviserende bank die bezorgt de documenten van het documentair krediet in opdracht van de
kredietopenende bank aan de begunstigde, zonder enige verbintenis van harentwege. ...
corporate.dexia.be/downloads/ nl_DocumentaireKredieten.pdf

This is what makes me think of agency or perhaps better RECOURSE - is this not RECOURSE???

Peer comment(s):
agree jarry (X) : Well done! According to GVD: " Mijnentwege" = uit mijn naam, wat mij betreft, voor mijn part. Jansonius: Mijnentwege = from me, in my name, as far as I am concerned.

and in German: meinetwegen. have come across this myself in Flemish legals docs.
agree Gerda Rijsselaere (X) : indeed, see "harentwege" in Van Dale NL-EN = on her behalf, in her name.
