to the advantage Explanation: Legal English is full of redundancies/doublets, triplets (null and void, aid and abet, etc.) and this is one of them. Enures to the benefit is to the advantage and benefit of the parties. TO ENURE To take, or have effect or serve to the use, benefit, or advantage of a person. The word is often written inure. A release to the tenant for life, enures to him in reversion, that is, it has the same effect for him as for the tenant for life. A discharge of the principal enures to the benefit of the surety. http://www.lawguru.com/dictionary/term.php?id=2297&searchtex... |
