- Custody Transfer
- An exchange is reciprocal — two transfers paired with mutual conditionality — while custody transfer is unidirectional, and many transfers are not exchanges at all, such as gifts, bequests, and shift changes.
This sourceArgues that deeds and gifts operate as unilateral transfers — executed conveyances of rights from one party to another — distinct from consideration-based, reciprocal exchange, supporting the contrast between one-way custody transfers (gifts, bequests, shift changes) and bilateral exchange.
Supported in partVerified against the publisher's abstract
Abstract supports gift-like unilateral transfer as distinct from consideration-based reciprocal promise, but does not define exchange or name custody transfer, bequests, or shift changes.
“The author argues that instead of understanding seals as analogous to a consideration-based promise, we should understand seals as analogous to an executed gift.”

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
