constructive delivery

An act that amounts to a transfer of title by operation of law when actual transfer is impractical or impossible.

• For example, the delivery of a deposit-box key by someone who is ill and immobile may amount to a constructive delivery of the box’s contents even though the box may be miles away. For the three traditional types of constructive delivery, see ATTORNMENT; CONSTITUTUM POSSESSORIUM; TRADITIO BREVI MANU.
