CONT

Legal executory interests are future interests which arise either under a use executed by the "Statute of Uses" or, formerly, under a will. (Anger & Honsberger, 2nd ed., 1985, p. 416)

CONT

(L) egal executory interests... are interests of a kind quite different from those recognized by the common law. As the word "legal" indicates, they are interests that affect legal title. They are "executory" in that they are always contingent and never vested, and when the contingency occurs they vest forthwith in possession and do not pass through the stage of vesting in interest. Moreover, legal executory interests are not subject to the common law remainder rules and in this sense, in contrast with legal contingent remainders, may be termed "indestructible. "(Mendes da Costa & Balfour, 1982, p. 771)

In determining the issue as to the priority of the mortgages, the doctrine of "feeding the estoppel" was considered. This doctrine is invoked when a person has no legal interest in the land at the time of the conveyance. As soon as he acquires title, it "feeds the estoppel" so as to pass his title to the grantee, according to the covenants in the deed, but subject to any limitations or defects in his newly acquired title.(5 R. P. R., p. 16)

There is one class of goods, it seems, in respect of which there may be a sale even though they are not existing at the time of the contract. The legal property in such goods can pass to the buyer without any need to conform to the provisions of the Act relating to the transfer of property. Such goods are those which have "potential existence". The distinction existed at common law between future goods to be manufactured or acquired by the seller, the position with respect to which has been considered above, and future goods in which the seller had what was called "a potential property". Such goods comprehended things which were the natural produce or expected increase of something already owned or possessed by the seller, for example, hay to be grown in a field, wool to be grown on sheep owned by the seller, or milk to be yielded by the seller's cows in the coming month.
