Possibility on a possibility
Possibility on a possibility. Lord Coke lays it down as a rule that the event on which a remainder is to depend must be a common possibility, and not a double possibility, or a possibility on a possibility, which the law will not allow. Thus he tells us that the chance that a man and a woman, both married to different persons, shall themselves marry one another is but a common possibility. But the chance that a married man shall have a son named Geoffrey is stated to be a double or remote possibility; see Williams on Real Property; 2 Rep. 51 a; 10 Rep. 50 b; Co. Litt. 184 a. The idea that there cannot be a possibility and a possibility seems to have been a conceit invented by Popham, C.J., but it was never really intelligible, Whitby v. Mitchell, (1890) 44 Ch D p. 92, per Lindley, LJ, and never applied to trusts of personal estate [Re Bowles, (1902) 2 Ch 650]. It gave rise, however, to the rule, now well settled in regard to limitations and trusts of realty created by instruments comin...
