Sister n law owns land your mother n law has life estate sister n law wants to sell the land to us but mother n law says not to because its hers would you have to move when she passes?

Your mother-in-law doesn't own the land she only owns the right to the use and possession of the land during her life. Your sister-in-law may execute a deed and sell the land to you. However, you would acquire the land subject to the life estate owned by your mother-in-law. Upon the death of your mother-in-law you would be the absolute owners of the land.

What is the Doctrine of Worthier Title?

In the common law of England, the doctrine of worthier title was a legal doctrine that preferred taking title to real estate by descent over taking title by devise or by purchase. Essentially it provided that a remainder couldn't be created in the grantor's heirs. The rule provided that where a testator undertook to convey an heir the same estate in land that the heir would take under the laws of inheritance, the heir would be adjudged to have taken title to the land by inheritance rather than by the conveyance, because descent through the bloodline was held to be "worthier" than a conveyance through a legal instrument.

Argued that the common law doctrine nemo that quod non habet admins of non exception?

This is the doctrine in Property Law that a landholder whether he be the owner of an interest in a freehold or non freehold estate can only transfer the interest that he has. For example, if a landowner owns an interest in fee simple absolute, he can devise, transfer (or his heirs will inherit) his entire estate. On the other hand, if he were to transfer a lesser quantum than his interest in fee simple, for example a life estate, then he would maintain the reversionary interest at the natural termination of that estate.
