In this note, we show that a lightlike hypersurface of an indefinite Sasakian manifold, which is tangent to structure vector field is not locally symmetric, semi-symmetric or semi-parallel.
The main purpose of this paper is to present the spherical characterization of Legendre curves in $3$-dimensional quasi-Sasakian pseudo-metric manifolds. Furthermore, null Legendre curves are also characterized in this class of manifold.
