Options And The Rule Against Perpetuities, John R. Rood

Articles

Michigan Law Review

Adverse Possession - Tacking - To a suit in ejectment, defendant pleaded, (z) the statute of limitations of seven years, claiming adverse possession for that length of time; (2) also twenty years' adverse possession as a basis for the presumption of a grant. The possession relied upon is partially that of defendant's predecessor, between whom and defendant there was no privity. Held, (I) the defense of the statute of limitations is without merit.

Transfer And Partition Of Remainders In Missouri, The, Manley O. Hudson Feb 1917

Transfer And Partition Of Remainders In Missouri, The, Manley O. Hudson

University of Missouri Bulletin Law Series

The common law gave to vested remainders many of the qualities of present estates, and most of the questions arising in connection with their transfer have long been free from difficulty. But contingent remainders occupied such a precarious place in the law long after they were first recognized as legal interests, that all questions as to their transferability were approached with exceeding reluctance.

Michigan Law Review

Adverse Possession Mistake - From a decree quieting in plaintiff title by adverse possession, defendants appealed, contending that plaintiff claimed the land only under and by virtue of a will which in fact conferred no legal title, and that such a claim was not adverse. Held, assuming that plaintiff believed he was asserting legal rights only, and that his claim of title was defective, his possession would nevertheless ripen into title by adverse possession. Erickson v. Crosby, (Neb. 1916) x6o N. W. 94.
