Err¹⁰. 326; 3 Verm. 543; 6 Monr. R. 15; Estate in common; Estate in joint tenancy.

JUS AD REM. property, title. This phrase is applied to designate the right a man has in relation to a thing; it is not the right in the thing itself, but only against the person who has contracted to deliver it. It is a mere¹¹ imperfect or inchoate¹² right. 2 Bl. Com. 312 Poth. Dr. de Dom. de Propriete, ch. prel. n. 1. This phrase is nearly equivalent to chose in action. 2 Wooddes. Lect. 235. See, 2 P.
