unité d'ouverture

OBS: unité d'ouverture : terme normalisé par le Comité de normalisation dans le cadre du Programme national de l'administration de la justice dans les deux langues officielles (PAJLO).

OBS: This is applied to joint tenants to signify that the interest of each of them must arise at the same time: that is, one cannot take his share first, and then another come in after him. This ruele, however, did not apply to estates created under the ""Statute of Uses"", 1535, or by will. (Jowitt's, 2nd ed., 1977, p. 1832).
