LEGAL. That which is according to law. It is used in opposition¹ to equitable², as the legal estate is, in the trustee, the equitable estate in the cestui que trust. Vide Powell on Mortg. Index, h. t.

2. The party who has the legal title, has alone the right to seek a remedy for a wrong to his estate, in a court of law, though he may have no beneficial interest in it. The equitable owner, is he who has not the legal estate, but is entitled to the beneficial interest.

4. When the trustee has a claim, he must enforce his right in a court of equity⁴, for he cannot sue any one at law, in his own name; 1 East, 497; 8 T. R. 332; 1 Saund. 158, n. 1; 2 Bing. 20; still less can he in such court sue his own trustee. 1 East, 497.

LEGAL ESTATE. One, the right to which may be enforced in a court of law. It is distinguished⁵ from an equitable estate, the rights to which can be established only in a court of equity. 2 Bouv. Inst. n. 1688.

2. By legalization, is also understood the act by which a judge or competent officer authenticates⁷ a record, or other matter, in order that the same may be lawfully⁸ read in evidence. Vide Authentication⁹.

LEGATES. Legates are extraordinary ambassadors sent by the pope to catholic countries to represent him, and to exercise his jurisdiction¹⁰. They are distinguished from the ambassadors of the pope who are sent to other powers.

3. - 1. Legates latere hold the first rank among those who are honored by a legation; they are always chosen from the college of cardinals¹¹, and are called a latere, in imitation of the magistrates¹² of ancient Rome, who were taken from the court, or side of the emperor.

4. - 2. The legati missi are simple envoys¹³.
