Chose in action
Is essentially a right to sue. It is an intangible personal property right recognised and protected by the law, which has no existence apart from the recognition given by the law, and which confers no present possession or tangible object. For example, personal property that you own but which another possesses can only be legally recovered by court proceedings.
