The Building Society chargee was entitled to possession because the charge was signed, but only to extent of the knowledge of the person signing charge. A woman partner had charged the house originally, but her partner had then unlawfully re-mortgaged it without her knowledge. Her interests did not have precedence up to the value of the original loan.
