CA 13 May 1988. When a wife claims that she has a beneficial interest in a house registered in her husband`s name and that her interest has priority over the rights of a mortgagee under a legal charge executed without her knowledge, then in order to claim the protection afforded to overriding interests by Land Registration Act 1925 s70(1)(g) , the wife must have been in actual occupation of the house when the charge was executed as distinct from being in occupation when the charge was registered.
