| 单词 | ultra vires |
| 释义 | ultra vires (Latin: beyond the powers) Denoting an act of an official or corporation for which there is no authority. The powers of officials exercising administrative duties and of companies are limited by the instrument from which their powers are derived. If they act outside these powers, their action may be challenged in the courts. A company's powers are limited by the objects clause in its memorandum of association. It it enters into an agreement outside these objects, the agreement may be unenforceable, although a third party may have a remedy under the Companies Act 1985 if it was dealing with the company in good faith (or there may be other equitable remedies). |
