Concise Treatise on the Law of Capital and Income As Between Life-Tenant and Remainderman (Classic Reprint)

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Concise Treatise on the Law of Capital and Income as Between Life-Tenant and Remainderman The principles regulating the enjoyment of settled pro perty by life-tenant and remainderman mainly depend on rules of administration laid down by Courts of Equity, which apply unless excluded by the expression of a contrary intention in the settlement. The Author's aim has been to collect the reported cases by which these rules have been established, and the cases in which they have been held to be excluded, together with the statutes bearing on the subject: thus presenting in a concise form, the rights of life-tenant and remainderman in respect of profits and proceeds of settled property, and their liabilities in respect of outgoings, outlay, and losses.
