Rule in Shelley's Case
The Rule in ''Shelley's Case'' is a rule of law that may apply to certain future interests in real property and trusts created in common law jurisdictions.〔Moynihan, Cornelius, ''Introduction to the Law of Real Property'', 3d Edition, West Group (St. Paul: 2002).〕 It was applied as early as 1366 in ''The Provost of Beverly's Case''〔〔Y.B. 40 Ed. 3, f9, 18)〕 but in its present form is derived from ''Shelley's Case'' (1581),〔1 Co.Rep. 93b (1581)〕 in which counsel stated the rule as follows:
The Rule was reported by Lord Coke in England in the 17th century as well-settled law. In England, it was abolished by the Law of Property Act 1925.〔15 & 16 Geo. 5, c.20, s131〕 During the twentieth century, it was abolished in most common law jurisdictions, including the majority of the United States. However, in states where the abrogation has been interpreted to apply only to conveyances made after abrogation, the relevance of the Rule today varies from jurisdiction to jurisdiction and in many states remains unclear.〔
The Rule is still in operation in all Canadian jurisdictions with the exception of Quebec, which uses civil law, and Manitoba, though it has made an appearance in case law only a few times in the last century.
==History==
The litigation was brought about because of a settlement made by Sir William Shelley (1480–1549), an English judge, on an estate he purchased when Sion Monastery was dissolved. The decision was rendered by Lord Chancellor Sir Thomas Bromley, who presided over an assembly of all the judges〔In modern terminology, this is an ''en banc'' decision.〕 on the King's Bench to hear the case during Easter term 1580–81. The rule existed in English common law long before this case was brought to the court, but ''Shelley's Case'' gave the law its most famous application.
