jäännösoikeudellinen

Jäännösoikeudellinen is a Finnish legal term that refers to a legal right or claim that remains or is inherited after a primary right or obligation has been extinguished or fulfilled. It signifies a residual entitlement or a secondary claim that arises under specific circumstances. This concept is often encountered in property law, inheritance law, and contract law, among other areas. For instance, in inheritance, if a testator makes a will leaving a specific property to one person and then states that any remaining assets should go to another, the second person holds a jäännösoikeudellinen to the residual estate. Similarly, in contractual agreements, if a primary obligation is met, but a secondary condition or liability remains, that remaining liability can be considered a jäännösoikeudellinen. The precise nature and scope of a jäännösoikeudellinen are determined by the relevant laws and the specific agreements or circumstances that give rise to it. It is a concept that ensures that no rights or claims are unjustly lost simply because a primary aspect of a transaction or disposition has concluded.
