Jurisdictional Bias
While a chose in action does refer to a right to sue it is not inaccrutate to refer to shares, bank accounts, and some types of trusts as a chose in action in Australia. The writer is obviously referring to his own jurusidction. In other jurisdictions, such as Australia, the High Court has always referred to intangible property as choses in action. A right to sue is considered to be just one type of a chose in action. I would be interested to know if the author was referring to a US or UK jurisdiction. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.222.156.110 (talk) 05:07, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

I believe, in English and Commonwealth systems, a "chose in action" refers to both the right to sue, as well as a form of intangible property. As far as intangible property is concerned, choses in action include things like property in shares, bank deposits, and book debts. As far as the right to sue is concerned, the way to enforce property rights against such intangible property IS by suing - the person with the property right in the chose is the person who is entitled to sue to enforce his property right! Hence, both definitions are correct and in fact comport to the idea of what a "chose in action" is. Just that the reader/writer must take care to note the context in which the phrase is used. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 137.132.250.14 (talk) 10:31, 19 November 2013 (UTC)

Header removed/Updated
Removal of the heading banner which read: "This article is largely based on an article in the out-of-copyright Encyclopædia Britannica Eleventh Edition, which was produced in 1911. It should be brought up to date to reflect subsequent history or scholarship (including the references, if any). When you have completed the review, replace this notice with a simple note on this article's talk page. (January 2011)"

Updated sources to reflect the development of English use of the phrase and its role within legal industry. — Preceding unsigned comment added by BNClawyer32 (talk • contribs) 15:48, 28 April 2018 (UTC)

Why is the article title in italics?
Why is the article title in italics? But, in the body of the article, the word "chose" is not in italics. I am not sure which is correct, or I would change it. Joseph A. Spadaro (talk) 20:49, 24 August 2018 (UTC)

I've now removed the italics - agreed, it is adopted into legal English. El T (talk) 08:58, 23 August 2020 (UTC)
