Definition: Entire benefit refers to the right to take profits from land owned and possessed by another; the equitable ownership of land to which another person holds the legal title.
Example: A trust deed may be created for the benefit of a married woman, and the phrase "entire benefit" may be used in the habendum of the deed to keep her husband from taking anything under the deed.
Explanation: The phrase "entire benefit" in this context means that the use of the property is solely for the benefit of the married woman. This ensures that her husband cannot claim any ownership or profits from the property. It is a way to protect the woman's rights to the property and prevent any interference from her husband.
