Condition
Condition. An event upon which a right under contract or to property may arise, become altered, or cease. Condition has been used in connection with personal obligations to distinguish one kind of obligation from another in the same transaction and to limit property. In their primary meaning, conditions precedent are events, but for the happening of which, rights will not arise.A condition subsequent puts an end to a state of things which, but for its happening, would have continued. Dependent or collateral conditions depend upon their mutual fulfilment as in a contract for sale of land where, unless otherwise agreed, the payment of the purchase money is conditional upon the conveyance and vice versa.Conditions may be imposed by the parties, either expressly or by necessary implication arising our of the construction of the document or agreement, or they may be implied bylaw according to the nature of the transaction.A peculiarity of conditions precedent is that an illegal or impossibl...

Cy-pres
Cy-pres (near to it). The principle of this doctrine of construction is, that where a testator hs two objects,one primary or general and the other secondary or particular, which are incompatible, the particular must be sacrificed in order that effect may be given to the general object, as near as may be to the testator' intention, according to law. Thus, where a testator has devised lands in a manner transgressing the rules of perpetuity and the Court can by giving the estates tail to the devisees, or any of them carry the property in the precise course marked out by the testator, supposing the estates left to themselves, it will do so, see Monypenny v. Dering, 16 M & W 418. The doctrine did not apply to personalty nor to a mixed fund. See Re Harwood, Coleman v. Innes, 1936 Ch 285.It is also applied to charitable bequests, and was formerly pushed to a most extra-vagant length. But this sensible distinction now prevails, that the court will not decree the execution of a charitable trust...
