Que estate
Que estate [quorum statum, Lat.], as much as to say, whose estate he has. Where prescriptive rights are claimed by reason of the continuous and immemorial enjoyment thereof by the claimant, a person seised in fee, and by all those whose estate he has, this is called a prescription in a que estate. The phrase is taken from the Norman French: that he, and all those whose estate he has, have from time immemorial enjoyed the right-tous ceus que estate il ad.-Williams on Rights of Common, p. 16.
