Originating summons
Originating summons, a summons without writ, returnable in the chambers of a judge of the High Court. summonses of this description are very frequently issued in the Chancery Division for the determination of particular questions arising in the administration of an estate or trust, without the administration of the whole estate or trust; for settling questions between vendors and purchasers (see VENDOR AND PURCHASER SUMMONS); for foreclosure or redemption of mortgages; for determining questions of construction of a written instrument, and for numerous other purposes; see R.S.C. 1883, Ords. LIV. LIVA., LIVB., LIVC., and LV. Et seq. If the question raised is one requiring argument it is generally adjourned into Court; if it is a simple matter the judge will determine it in Chambers. The summons may be taken out by any person interested, and is served on the persons whose rights are sought to be affected. This procedure was first established in 1883 by the Rules of that year, and has been...
Occupier's Liability Notice
Occupier's Liability Notice, the notice which the owner of land out of which tithe rent-charge issues is required, by sub-s. 6 of s. 2 of the Tithe Act, 1891, to give to the owner of the tithe rent-charge of the liability of the occupier of the land, under a contract made before the Act, to pay such tithe rent-charge to such owner of land.

Chiltern hundreds
Chiltern hundreds. A member of the House of Commons cannot resign his seat. He may, however, become disqualified by acceptance of an office of profit under the Crown. A member therefore usually vacates his seat by the acceptance of the stewardship of the Chiltern Hundreds, or some other nominal office in the gift of the Chancellor of the Exchequer. The practice began about the year 1750; but the duties and profits of the stewardship have long since ceased, and the office is only retained to serve this particular purpose. The Chiltern Hills, a range of chalk eminences separating the counties of Bedford and Hertford, were formerly covered with thick beechwood, and sheltered numerous robbers; to put these marauders down, and protect the inhabitants of the neighbourhood from their depredations, an officer was appointed under the Crown called the Steward of the Chiltern Hundreds, which were Burnham, Desborough and Stoke.The Crown, for the convenience of the House at large, is ordinarily rea...

However, where the...
