International Law
International Law. I. Public Law: The law of nations, strictly so called, was in a great measure unknown to antiquity, and is the slow growth of modern times, under the combined influence of Christianity, intercourse, commerce and war.II. Private Law (Conflict of Laws): It is plain that the laws of one country can have no intrinsic force, proprio vigore, except within the territorial limits and jurisdiction of that country. They can bind only its own subjects and others who are within its jurisdictional limits; and the latter only while they remain therein. No other nation, or its subjects, is bound to yield the slightest obedience to those laws. Whatever extra-territorial force they are to have is the result not of any original power to extend them abroad, but of that respect which, from motives of public policy, other nations are disposed to yield to them, giving them effect, as the phrase is, sub mutu' vicissitudinis obtentu, with a wise and liberal regard to common convenience and ...
Assent of personal representatives
Assent of personal representatives, At Common Law the personal estate passing by the will of a deceased person, including chattels real vested in the executor, virtute officii. The property passed to the legatee as soon as the executors assented to the bequest. The transfer was made not by the mere force of the assent but by virtue of the will, Attenborough v. Solomon, 1912 AC 76, and the assent might be given to one executor. No formalities were required. The assent might be implied, for instance, in the case of lease holds, by letting the person entitled into possession or the receipt of rent and profits, but the assent was required to be definite and unambiguous. When given it related back to the date of death and as a rule it could not be withdrawn [but see Whittaker v. Kershaw (1890), 45 CD 320]. This is still the law in regard to pure personalty, excluding chattels real. Before the (English) Land Transfer Act, 1897 (60 & 61 Vict. c. 65) real estate passed to the heir-at-law of th...
