Contingent Interest Law and Legal Definition
Contingent interest refers to a future interest which is uncertain and it largely depends upon the happening of an event. In a contingent interest, an interest can only come on the happening of a specified event. In this type of interest either the person who will enjoy the property, or the occurrence of the event will be unknown and uncertain.
