In the notes. IN NUBIBUS (Lat.). In the clouds; in abeyance; in custody of law. In nubibus, in mure, in terra vel, in custodia legis: in the air, sea, or earth, or in the custody of the law. Taylor, Gloss. In case of abeyance, the Inheritance is figuratively said to rest in nubibus, or in gremio legis: e. g. in case of a grant of life estate to A, and afterwards to heirs of Richard, Richard in this case, being alive, has no heirs until his death, and, consequently, the inheritance is considered as resting in nubibus, or in the clouds, till the death of A, when the contingent remainder either vests or is lost and the inheritance goes over. See 2 Sharsw. Bla. Com. 107, n.; 1 Co. 137; Abeyance.
