Joint-tenancy
Joint-tenancy. This tenancy is created where the same interest in real or personal property is, by the act of the party, passed by the same matter of conveyance or claim in solido, and not as merchan-dise, or for purposes of speculation, to two or more persons in the same right, either simply, or by construction or operation of law jointly, with a jus accrescendi, that is, a gradual concentration of property from more to fewer, by the accession of the part of him or them that die to the survivors or survivor, till it passes to a single hand, and the joint-tenancy ceases.Anciently, joint-tenancy was favoured because it did not induce fractions of estates, and returning to early principles the (English) Land Legislation of 1925 has employed the tenure generally as the machinery by which legal estate may in such cases always be in some person, called the estate owner, who is competent to give a title to the whole estate without the concurrence of other parties. that legal estate has been ...
Uses
Uses (History). A use is the intention or purpose, express or implied, upon which property is to be held. The Common Law treated the actual possessor for all purposes as the owner of the property. It was not difficult to find him out, since the possession of his estate was conferred upon him by a formal and notorious ceremony, technically called livery of seisin, which was performed openly and in the presence of the people of the locality.It soon became evident that the simple rules of the Common Law were stumbling-blocks to the complicated wants of an enterprising people.Hence ingenuity was sharpened to hit upon a device which should set at nought the rigidity of existing law and formalities.A system was found by the monastic jurists upon a model furnished by the Civil Law, which, by a nice adaptation, evaded, without overturning, the Common Law. Two methods of transferring realty began to co-exist in this country-the ancient Common Law system, and the later invention, which is denomi...
Seller
Seller, in a contract for sale of goods, the word 'seller' must obviously refer to the party selling under the contract unless there is anything in the context suggesting otherwise.

Pratapmal Rameshwar, AIR 1978 SC 389 (396): (1978) 1 SCC 69: (1978) 2 SCR 219.Means a person who sells or agrees to sell goods. [Sale of Goods Act, 1930 (3 of 1930), s. 2(13)]1.

Sale of goods
Sale of goods, in Entry 48 of List II Sch. VII of the Government of India Act, 1935, 'sale of goods' has the same meaning which it has in the Indian Sale of Goods Act, 1930, that in a building contract there is no sale of materials as such, and that it is therefore ultra vires the powers of the Provincial Legislature to impose tax on the supply of materials, Pandit Banarsi Das Bhanot v. State of M.P., AIR 1958 SC 909 (912): (1959) SCR 427.It is now settled law that the words 'sale of goods' have to be construed not in the popular sense but in their legal sense and should be given the same meaning which they carry in the Sale of Goods Act, 1930. The expression 'sale of goods' is a nomen juris, its essential ingredient being an agreement to sell movables for a price and property passing therein pursuant to that agreement, T.V. Sundaram Iyengar & Sons v. State of Madras, AIR 1974 SC 2309: (1975) 3 SCC 424: (1975) 2 SCR 372.On the true interpretation of the expression 'sale of goods' there...

Portion
Portion, property settled or provided in favour of children or their issue. In settlements by deed or will of personal property, portions were and are usually effected by direct trusts in favour of the children or issue, either immediately or after the death of the parent or parents. In regard to realty the usual plan was to settle a long term of years from or out of the real estate upon trust to sell or mortgage the term in order to provide the portions when they became payable. See SATISFIED TERM; ATTENDANT TERM. This term preceded the settlement of the estate in fee or in tail according to the intention of the settlor. This method is still available although the term is not a legal estate and will not affect a purchaser even with notice who takes his title from estate owners who are entitled to sell the estate unaffected by the term, but the trustees entitled to the term may require to have the term secured by a legal mortgage. See Law of Property Act, s. 3 (1) and Settled Land Act,...
