Trust receipts.

The same argument was raised against the Trust Receipts Law (PD 115), which is a
declaration by the legislative authority that, as a matter of public policy, the failure of a person to turn
over the proceeds of the sale of goods covered by a trust receipt or to return said goods if not sold is
a public nuisance to be abated by the imposition of penal sanctions. It punishes the dishonesty and
abuse of confidence in the handling of money or goods to the prejudice of another. The law does not
seek to enforce payment of a loan. (Tiomico vs. CA)
