§ 8.2-512 Payment by buyer before inspection
1. Where the contract requires payment before inspection nonconformity of the goods does not excuse the buyer from so making payment unless
b. despite tender of the required documents the circumstances would justify injunction against honor under § 8.5A-109 (b).
2. Payment pursuant to subsection (1) does not constitute an acceptance of goods or impair the buyer’s right to inspect or any of his remedies.
History
This law was first created in 1964. The record of its establishment is cataloged in chapter 219 of that year’s edition of “Acts of Assembly,” the annual state publication listing all changes made to the Code of Virginia in that year. Unfortunately, the 1964 “Acts” aren’t available online. It has been modified 1 time. Those modifications are cataloged by “The Acts of Assembly,” a state publication, by year and chapter. Those modifications that can be read on the General Assembly’s website will be linked accordingly. That modification is as follows: in 1997, chapter 343.
1964, c. 219; 1997, c. 343.
