Allonge

   Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus, Legal, Wikipedia 0.48 sec.
Allonge
A sheet of paper attached to a bill of exchange for the purpose of documenting endorsements.

Notes:
The need for an allonge arises due to the lack of space on the bill itself for additional endorsements. Because a bill of exchange is transferable through endorsement, it may be exchanged among so many parties that these parties don't all fit on the bill. In this case, a separate piece of paper - the allonge - is attached to the bill, acting as a legal extension of the document.
