Expectant Heir in Europe
Definition of Expectant Heir
Everyone who has either a vested remainder or a contingent remainder in a family property, including a remainder in a portion, as well as a remainder in an estate, and everyone who has the hope of succession to the property of an ancestor, either by reason of being the heir-apparent or presumptive, or by reason merely of the expectation of a devise or bequest on account of the supposed or presumed affection of his ancestor or relation. More than this, the doctrine as to expectant heirs has been extended to all reversioners and remaindermen (per Jessel, M.R., Beynon v. Cook, L. R. 10′ Ch. 391). See Catching Bargain
