Common Intention, common object, under s. 34 when a criminal act is done by several persons in furtherance of the common intention of all, each of such persons is liable for that act in the same manner as if it were done by him alone. The words 'in furtherance of the common intention of all' are a most essential part of s. 34 of the Indian Penal Code. It is common intention to commit the crime actually committed. This common intention is anterior in time to the commission of the crime. Common intention means a pre-arranged plan. On the other hand, s. 149 of the Indian Penal Code speaks of an offence being committed by any member of an unlawful assembly in prosecution of the common object of that assembly, Devilal v. State of Rajasthan, (1971) 3 SCC 471: AIR 1971 SC 1444 (1446). [Indian Penal Code (45 of 1860), ss. 34 and 149]...
Common object, common intention

(Indian Penal Code, 1860, s. 149)...
Common object
Common object, 'common object' is different from a 'common intention' as it does not require a prior concert and a common meeting of minds before the attack. It is enough if each has the same object in view and their number is five or more and that they act as an assembly to achieve that object. The 'common object' of an assembly is to be ascertained from the acts and language of the members composing it, and from a consideration of all the surrounding circumstances. It may be gathered from the course of conduct adopted by the members of the assembly, State of Maharashtra v. Kashirao, AIR 2003 SC 3901 (3905): (2003) 10 SCC 434. (Penal Code, 1860, s. 141)Common object, the word object means the purpose or design and in order to make it common it must be shared by all, Charan Singh v. State of Uttar Pradesh, (2004) SCC 205....

Uses
Uses (History). A use is the intention or purpose, express or implied, upon which property is to be held. The Common Law treated the actual possessor for all purposes as the owner of the property. It was not difficult to find him out, since the possession of his estate was conferred upon him by a formal and notorious ceremony, technically called livery of seisin, which was performed openly and in the presence of the people of the locality.It soon became evident that the simple rules of the Common Law were stumbling-blocks to the complicated wants of an enterprising people.Hence ingenuity was sharpened to hit upon a device which should set at nought the rigidity of existing law and formalities.A system was found by the monastic jurists upon a model furnished by the Civil Law, which, by a nice adaptation, evaded, without overturning, the Common Law. Two methods of transferring realty began to co-exist in this country-the ancient Common Law system, and the later invention, which is denomi...

Ashiq Husain, AIR 1929 Oudh 225.Trust, is an obligation annexed to ownership. A trustee holds property 'subject' to an obligation, which the testator has imposed upon him, Mahadeo Ramchandra v.

Cy-pres
Cy-pres (near to it). The principle of this doctrine of construction is, that where a testator hs two objects,one primary or general and the other secondary or particular, which are incompatible, the particular must be sacrificed in order that effect may be given to the general object, as near as may be to the testator' intention, according to law. Thus, where a testator has devised lands in a manner transgressing the rules of perpetuity and the Court can by giving the estates tail to the devisees, or any of them carry the property in the precise course marked out by the testator, supposing the estates left to themselves, it will do so, see Monypenny v. Dering, 16 M & W 418. The doctrine did not apply to personalty nor to a mixed fund. See Re Harwood, Coleman v. Innes, 1936 Ch 285.It is also applied to charitable bequests, and was formerly pushed to a most extra-vagant length. But this sensible distinction now prevails, that the court will not decree the execution of a charitable trust...

For the action at law intention and representation (q.v.) are material.

Possession
Possession, correctly understood, means effective physical control or occupation. The word 'possession' is sometimes used inaccurately as synonymous with the right to possess, Gurucharan Singh v. Kamla Singh, (1976) 2 SCC 152.Possession, does not imply mere acts of the user, or of occupation alone, but the occupation must be with the intention of exercising some claim or right in respect of the property occupied. A person who has no claim to the property but succeeds by show of force in acquiring physical control over the same cannot be treated to be in its possession, notwith-standing his physical control over it, Ram Krishna v. Bhagwan Baksh Singh, (1961) All LJ 301.Possession, implies dominion and control and the consciousness in the mind of the person having dominion that he has it and can exercise it, Chhedi Ram v.
