Description

This is an action by the original makers of a promissory note who claim they became sureties by operation of law when a third party assumed the obligation to pay the note. The makers of the note allege that the payee of the note, their creditor, allowed the creditor's security interest in collateral to lapse, thereby impairing the makers' recourse to that collateral. The trial court granted partial summary judgment on the creditor's liability for impairment of collateral. Following trial on damages, the court held that the makers were entitled to partial discharge on the note in the amount of $32,724.36, the gross value of the collateral. The Court of Appeals affirmed. Hemenway v. Miller, 55 Wash. App. 86, 776 P.2d 710 (1989). We reverse.
