Ruling Chief

Ruling Chief, the expression 'Ruling Chief' has not been defined in the Act and must therefore by understood as in common parlance. The meaning of the word 'ruler' as given in Shorter Oxford English Dictionary, 3rd Edn., Vol. 2, p. 1867 is: 'One who, or that which, exercise rule, especially of supreme or sovereign kind.' Normally the expression 'Ruling Chief' connotes 'a person who is endowed with the content of sovereignty and also has the attributes of a sovereign'. According to Black's Law Dictionary, 5th Edn., p. 1252 (See now 7th Edn. P. 1402) the legal conception of 'sovereignty' is stated thus: The supreme, absolute, and uncontrollable power by which any independent state is governed; supreme political authority; paramount control of the constitution and frame of government and its administration; the self-sufficient source of political power, from which all specific political powers are derived; the international independence of a state, combined with the right and power of reg...


Possibility on a possibility

Possibility on a possibility. Lord Coke lays it down as a rule that the event on which a remainder is to depend must be a common possibility, and not a double possibility, or a possibility on a possibility, which the law will not allow. Thus he tells us that the chance that a man and a woman, both married to different persons, shall themselves marry one another is but a common possibility. But the chance that a married man shall have a son named Geoffrey is stated to be a double or remote possibility; see Williams on Real Property; 2 Rep. 51 a; 10 Rep. 50 b; Co. Litt. 184 a. The idea that there cannot be a possibility and a possibility seems to have been a conceit invented by Popham, C.J., but it was never really intelligible, Whitby v. Mitchell, (1890) 44 Ch D p. 92, per Lindley, LJ, and never applied to trusts of personal estate [Re Bowles, (1902) 2 Ch 650]. It gave rise, however, to the rule, now well settled in regard to limitations and trusts of realty created by instruments comin...
