legal notice

legal notice
Notice complying with the requirements of the law; notice which the law implies either from knowledge of actual facts or from failure to make inquiry where a duty arises to make such inquiry. Jennings v Lentz, 50 Or 483, 93 P 327, 329. Legal or implied notice is the same as constructive notice and is notice which cannot be controverted by proof. It is a legal inference from established facts, and, like other legal presumptions, does not admit of dispute. A recorded deed is an instance of such notice. It is of no consequence whether the second purchaser has actual notice of the prior deed or not. He is bound to take, and is presumed to have, the requisite notice. Notice to an agent also is constructive notice to the principal. The law imputes such notice to the party whether he has it or not. See Cooper v Flesner, 24 Okla 47, 103 P 1016.
