The same covenant was not void under the rule against perpetuities because it did not create an interest in immovable property; it was only a contractual obligation, which may be enforced against a transferee with notice. The pre-emption right was therefore upheld as enforceable against transferees and not invalid under the perpetuity doctrine. en-us Tue, 06 Sep 1966 00:00:00 +0530 Tue, 09 Feb 2016 16:56:23 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=178621 A covenant of pre-emption in a partition award was held binding on assignees and successors-in-interest because the wording and surrounding obligations showed no contrary intention, and contractual enforcement could extend to representatives in interest, legal representatives, assignees and transferees.
