Legal Definition and Related Resources of Conditional limitation
Meaning of Conditional limitation
A condition followed by a limitation over to a third person in case the condition be not fulfilled, or there be a breach of it. A condition determines an estate after breach, upon entry or claim by the proper person. A limitation marks the period which determines an estate without any act on the part of him who has the next expectant interest. A conditional limitation is therefore of a mixed nature, partaking of that of a condition and a limitation. Bigelow, J., 3 Gray (Mass.) 143. The limitation over need not be to a stranger. 2 Bl. Comm. 155; 11 Mete. (Mass.) 102; Watk. Conv. 204. It is distinguished from an estate on condition subsequent by the fact that, on breach of a conditional limitation, the estate terminates ipso facto. 1 Steph. Comm. 310.
