Common
Common, a profit which a man has in the land of another; it derives its name from the community of interest which thence arises between the claimant and the owner of the soil, or between the claimant and other commoners entitled to the same right; all which parties are entitled to bring actions for injuries done to their respective interests, and that both as against strangers and against each other. It is called an incorporeal right, which lies in grant, as if originally commencing in some agreement between lords and tenants, for some valuable consideration which, by lapse of time, being formed into a prescription, continues, although there be no deed or instrument in writing which proves the original contract or agreement. It differs from a rent, principally in freedom of enjoyment on the one hand, and in freedom from obligation on the other; which the law expresses by the quaint antithesis that it lies not in render but in prender. It is also incidentally distinguished by its fruits...

Common stock or common hotchpot
Common stock or common hotchpot, the doctrine of throwing into common stock inevitably postulates that the owner of a separate property is a coparcener who has an interest in the coparcenary property and desires to blend his separate property with the coparcenary property. The existence of a coparcenary is absolutely necessary before a coparcener can throw into the common stock his self-acquired properties. The separate property of a member of a joint Hindu family may be impressed with the character of joint family property if it is voluntarily thrown by him into the common stock with the intention of abandoning his separate claim therein. The separate property of a Hindu ceases to be a separate property and acquires the characteristic of a joint family or ancestral property not by any physical mixing with his joint family or his ancestral property but by his own volition and intention by his waiving and surrendering his separate rights in it as separate property. The act by which the ...
Common Intention, common object
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]...

Tenancy in Common
Tenancy in Common. Legal estate in undivided shares inland has been abolished by the Law of Property Act, 1925, s. 1, which reduced the interest of tenants-in-common to that of a cestui que trust under a trust for sale of land. The following notes have been kept verbatim to explain titles as they existed immediately before 1926. This estate is created when several persons have several distinct estates, either of the same or of a different quantity, in any subject of property, in equal or unequal shares, and either by the same act or by several acts, and by several titles, and not a joint title. A tenancy-in-common will, as a rule, be construed to exist wherever the instrument creating it indicates that the land is to be held in shares, equally, or in moieties, or the nature of the transaction is such as to preclude the intention of survivorship such as an acquisition of land by partners for the purposes of their business.A tenancy-in-common differs from a joint-tenancy in this respect:...
