Marriage
Marriage. Marriage as understood in Christendom is the voluntary union for life of one man and one woman, to the exclusion of all others, Hyde v. Hyde, 1866 LR 1 P&D 130. Where a marriage in a foreign country complies with these requirements it is immaterial that under the local law dissolution can be obtained by mutual consent or at the will of either party with merely formal conditions of official registration, and it constitutes a valid marriage according to English law, Nachimson v. Nachimson, 1930, P. 217. Previous to 1753 the validity of marriage was regulated by ecclesiastical law, not touched by any statutory nullity but modified by the Common law Courts, which sometimes interfered with the Ecclesiastical Courts, by prohibition, sometimes themselves decide on the validity of a marriage, presuming a marriage in fact as opposed to lawful marriage. A religious ceremony by an ordained clergyman was essential to a lawful marriage, at all events for dower and heirship; but if in an i...

Lives
Lives, Estate for. A lease to A. during the life of another or the lives of others was a tenure of very long standing in England, chiefly in the west and north, or where the lease was granted by a corporation, and in Ireland. Now such a lease is either a lease for 90 years determinable by notice after any event determining the term under the original demise as provided by the (English) Law of Property Act, 1925, s. 149, if the lease is at a rent or in consideration of a fine, or is a converted copyhold lease for life without right of perpetual renewal under Part V of the (English) L.P.Act, 1922. In all other cases it is an equitable interest and governed by the Settled Land Act,1925. The tenant under the lease was called a tenant pur autre [or auter] vie, and the person during whose life the lease is to last, the cestui que vie. By 18 & 19 Car. 2, there is a prima facie presumption of death after seven years; and by the Cestui que Vie Act,1707 (6 Anne, c. 72), an order may be made by t...

Chattels or catals
Chattels or catals [fr. Catalla, Lat.; chatel, Fr.; chaptel, Old Fr.]. The word 'catalla' among the Normans primarily signified only beasts of husbandry or, as they are still called, cattle, but in a secondary sense the term was extended to all movables and not only to these but to whatsoever was not a fief or feud or, at a later date, in the nature of freehold or parcel of it. The distinction in the class of chattels survives in the legal meaning of the terms, 'personal chattels,' denoting movable property and 'chattels real,' which concern the realty, such as terms of years of lands or tenements, wardships, the interest of tenant by statute staple, by statute merchant, by elegit, and such like, Co. Litt., 118 b.Chattels personal or in a more narrow and more modern sense, 'chattels' (cf. 'goods and chattels' in the writ of fieri facias) (q.v.), means movable property or effects which belong personally to the owner and for which if they are injuriously withheld from him he has, in gene...

Living separately
Living separately, the expression 'living separately', connotes to our mind not living like husband and wife. It has no reference to the place of living. The parties may live under the same roof by force of circumstances, and yet they may not be living as husband and wife. The parties may be living in different houses and yet they could live as husband and wife. What seems to be necessary is that they have no desire to perform marital obligations and with that mental attitude they have been living separately for a period of one year immediately preceding the presentation of the petition, Sureshta Devi v. Om Prakash, AIR 1992 SC 1904 (1907): (1991) 2 SCC 25. [Hindu Marriage Act, (25 of 1955), s. 13B]...
