A transfers to B for valuable consideration his reversionary interest in a property. When A succeeds to the property, B sues him for possession. Whether B will succeed?

Answer & Explanation:

A transfers to B for valuable consideration his reversionary interest in a property. When A succeeds to the property, B sues him for possession of the same. B will not succeed as the reversionary interest is a 'spes successionis' and non-transferable. So the transfer is void and B's suit for possession fails.
