* Strimathoo Moothoo Vijia Bagoonadah Ranee Kolandapuree Natchiar alias Kattama Natchiar v. Dorasinga Tevar alias Gowry Vallaba Tevar 15 B.L.R. 83.

The portion of that Judgment o� their Lordships referred to here was as follows:

The arguments now under consideration are founded on the right of a reversioner to bring a suit to restrain a widow or other Hindu female in possession from acts of waste, although his interest during her life is future and contingent. Suits of the kind form a very special class and have been entertained by the Courts ex-necessitate rei.
