to give effect to the latter. But as the Court of Chancery would not have interfered formerly to prevent a plaintiff enforcing his legal rights in respect of permissive waste but only itself refused to give a remedy, it is thought that their Lordships did not mean to decide that such an action would not now lie in the Queen's Bench Division by a plaintiff having the legal estate. Upon the whole, therefore, it is submitted that there is no sufficient reason to doubt that an action for permissive waste can be maintained in the Queen's Bench Division in cases where both parties have a legal estate, except in the case of tenancies at will, in the strict sense of the term. For further information on the subject of waste the reader is referred to Yool on Waste, and to Bullen and Leake's Prec. Pl. (3rd ed.), p. 422.
