Victories for tenants?
Language: English Series: Journal of the Law Society of Scotland ; 51(9) September, 40(1)Publication details: 2006Subject(s): Summary: Examines two recent decisions that have broken new ground on the legal position of joint tenancies of agricultural holdings in Scotland: "Stephen v Trustees of Cawdor Marriage Settlement Trust" and "Salvesen v Graham". They also throw new light on the circumstances in which an interest in a joint tenancy remains in being. In "Stephen" it was found that an interest which had already been extinguished was not available to be terminated at a later date. In "Graham" it was concluded that a tenancy in common is a single tenancy and that the joint tenants form a single entity. Both cases are now subject to appeal.| Item type | Current library | Call number | Copy number | Status | Barcode | |
