Executory devise
Executory devise. Mr. Fearne (Cont. Rem. 386) defines an executory devise to be, strictly, such a limitation of a future estate or interest in lands or chattels (though, in the case of chattels personal, it is more properly an executory bequest) as the law admits in the case of a will, though contrary to the rules of limitation in conveyances at Common Law. It is only an indulgence allowed to a man's last will and testament, where otherwise the words of the will would be void; for wherever a future interest is so limited by devise as to operate as a contingent remainder, such an interest is not an executory devise, but a contingent remainder.Executory Devises have been divided into three kinds, two relative to real, and the third to personal estate only, viz.:-(1) Where a testator devises his whole fee-simple, but upon some contingency qualifies such devise, and limits an estate on the contingency; e.g., a devise of land to the testator's wife for life, remainder to C., his second son ...

The next friend of an infant is prima facie liable for the costs, which are, however, reimbursed to him out of the infant's estate, provided he have acted properly; but the next friend of a feme covert did not incur the like responsibility. [O. 32, r. 1, C.P.C.]A married woman had, by Ord. XVI., r. 8, of the Rules of 1875, the same right of s...
