Definition of incomplete instrument
An incomplete instrument is a paper that was intended to be a negotiable instrument but lacks an essential element. It is not yet a complete legal document. However, it can still be enforced if it is subsequently completed.
- A check that is missing the name of the payee is an incomplete instrument.
- A promissory note that does not state the interest rate is an incomplete instrument.
These examples illustrate how an incomplete instrument is missing a crucial piece of information that makes it legally binding. However, if the missing information is added later, the instrument can still be enforced.
Where you see wrong or inequality or injustice, speak out, because this is your country. This is your democracy. Make it. Protect it. Pass it on.

Simple Definition
An incomplete instrument is a paper that was meant to be a legal document, but is missing something important. It can still be enforced if the missing part is added later. For example, if someone writes a check but forgets to fill in the amount, they can still complete it and use it as a valid payment.
