FAILURE - A total defect; an omission; a non-performance. Failure also signifies a stoppage of payment; as there has been a failure today, some one has stopped payment. According to the French code of commerce every merchant or trader who suspends payment is in a state of failure. FAILURE OF ISSUE - When there is a want of issue to take an estate limited over by an executory devise. Failure of issue is definite or indefinite. When the precise time for the failure of issue is fixed by the will, as is the case of a devise to Peter, but if he dies without issue living at the time of his death, then to another, this is a failure of issue definite.
