Home Dictionary Name: void Page: 6visa expiration date
visa expiration date The visa expiration date is shown on the visa. This means the visa is valid, or can be used from the date it is issued until the date it expires, for travel for the same purpose, when the visa is issued for multiple entries. This time period from the visa issuance date to visa expiration date as shown on the visa, is called visa validity. If you travel frequently as a tourist for example, with a multiple entry visa, you do not have to apply for a new visa each time you want to travel to the U.S. As an example of travel for the same purpose, if you have a visitor visa, it cannot be used to enter at a later time to study in the U.S. The visa validity is the length of time you are permitted to travel to a port-of-entry in the United States to request permission of the U.S. immigration inspector to permit you to enter the U.S. The visa does not guarantee entry to the U.S. The Expiration Date for the visa should not be confused with the authorized length of your sta...
visa validity
visa validity This generally means the visa is valid, or can be used from the date it is issued until the date it expires, for travel for the same purpose for visas, when the visa is issued for multiple entries. The visa expiration date is shown on the visa. Depending on the alien's nationality, visas can be issued for any number of entries, from as little as one entry to as many as multiple (unlimited) entries, for the same purpose of travel. If you travel frequently as a tourist for example, with a multiple entry visa, you do not have to apply for a new visa each time you want to travel to the U.S. As an example of travel for the same purpose, if you have a visitor visa, it cannot be used to enter at a later time to study in the U.S. The visa validity is the length of time you are permitted to travel to a port-of-entry in the United States to request permission of the U.S. immigration inspector to permit you to enter the U.S. The visa does not guarantee entry to the U.S. The Expi...

A vinculo matrimonii
A vinculo matrimonii. (From the bond of wedlock). It was a total divorce obtained from the Ecclesiastical Court on some canonical impediment existing before marriage and not arising afterwards, for the marriage was declared void, as having been absolutely unlawful ab initio, and the parties were therefore separated pro salute animarum (for the safety of their souls), the issue (if any) were illegitimate, and the parties could contract another marriage. This maxim directs the construction to be put upon Acts of Parliament, against the express letter of which the Courts will not sanction any interpretation, for the meaning of the Legislature cannot be so well explained as by its own direct words, since index animi sermo (language conveys the intention of the mind), and maledicta expositio qu' corrumpit textum (an exposition which corrupts the text is bad). [4 Rep. 35; Sussex Peerage Case, (1844) 11 Cl & F 143.]This maxim directs the construction to be put upon Acts of Parliament, against...

Borrowing powers
Borrowing powers. Most public bodies are possessed of borrowing powers, but the terms of the Act conferring the power to borrow must be strictly pursued, see Att.-Gen. V. De Winton, (1906) 2 Ch 106; Rex v. Locke, (1910) 2 KB 201.A company under the (English) Companies Act, 1929, has no power to borrow money unless the provision is contained in the Memorandum of Association, but it has an implied power to borrow money and give security therefor for the purposes of its business, General Auction Estate Co. v. Smith, (1891) 3 Ch 432. If the money borrowed is beyond the company's powers the excess is void, Wenlock v. River Dee Co., (1885) 10 AC 354. And see Re Harris Calculating Machine Co., (1914) 1 Ch 920, as to the lender's right of subrogation to creditors who have been paid with the proceeds of the void loan. See also (English) Companies Clauses Consolidation Act, 1845 (8 & 9 Vict. c. 16), ss. 38 et. Seq.; ASSOCIATION, MEMORANDUM OF....
Commendam
Commendam is a benefice or ecclesiastical living which, being void, is commended by the Crown to the care of a clerk until it may be conveniently supplied with a pastor. Not only dignitaries and benefices, but deaneries, prebends, headships of colleges and hospitals, have been granted in commendam. The acceptance by a beneficed clerk of a second living vacated the one be already held, and to avoid this a dispensation, called a commendam retinere, had to be obtained either from the Pope, or in later times from the King. See Mirehouse on Adv. C. vii., S. 6.By the Ecclesiastical Commissioners Act, 1836 (6 & 7 jWm. 4, c. 77), s. 18, which abolished commendams by bishops (with a saving for those at the passing of the Act), every commendam, whether to retain or to receive, and whether temporary or perpetual, became absolutely void....
