Simple English definitions for legal terms

containing by estimate

Read a random definition: forisfamiliate

A quick definition of containing by estimate:

Containing by estimate: An old-fashioned way of saying "more or less." This phrase is often used in legal documents when describing measurements of land or property. It means that the measurement is not exact, but is an approximation.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Containing by estimate is an archaic term that means "more or less." It is often used in deeds where measurements are made by metes and bounds.

Example: The property is described as containing by estimate 10 acres of land.

Explanation: This means that the property is approximately 10 acres, but the exact measurement may be slightly more or less than that. The term "containing by estimate" is used because the property's boundaries are described by metes and bounds, which can be difficult to measure precisely.

Example: The deed states that the lot is containing by estimate 1/2 acre of land.

Explanation: This means that the lot is approximately 1/2 acre, but the exact measurement may be slightly more or less than that. The term "containing by estimate" is used because the lot's boundaries are described by metes and bounds, which can be difficult to measure precisely.
