NON-ASSESSABLE

This word, placed upon a certificate of stock, does not cancel or impair the obligation to pay the amount due upon the shares created by the acceptance and holding of such certificate. At most its legal effect is a stipulation against liability from further assessment or taxation after the entire subscription of one hundred per cent, shall have been paid. Upton v. Tribil-cook, 01 U. S. 45, 23 L. Ed. 203.
