Calvin's case

Read a random definition: a jure suo cadunt

A quick definition of Calvin's case:

Calvin's case: A ruling that said people born in Scotland after King James I became the King of England in 1603 were considered natural-born subjects of the English King. This meant they could inherit land in England. The decision was made in the case of Calvin v. Smith in 1608.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Calvin's case was a legal decision made in 1608 that established that individuals born in Scotland after James I became the King of England in 1603 were considered natural-born subjects of the English monarch. This meant that they could inherit land in England.

Example: For example, if a Scottish couple had a child in 1610 and that child later inherited land in England, Calvin's case would ensure that the child was considered a natural-born subject of the English monarch and could legally inherit the land.

Explanation: Calvin's case was significant because it clarified the legal status of individuals born in Scotland after James I became the King of England. Before this decision, there was some confusion about whether these individuals were considered natural-born subjects of the English monarch. This decision ensured that they were, which had important implications for inheritance and other legal matters.
