The distinction is between an interest that has arisen and one that has not arisen and may never arise, but in regard to which there is a remote possibility that the event upon which it depends will occur; the latter is not an interest or right, but is nothing more than a bare expectation of a future right. Hence, a person having nothing more than that has no right of action, such as the right to sue for preservation of the property concerned.
