520 _a"Skinns v Greenwood" CA 12 March 2002. Appellant tenant (S) held a 90-year lease which provided on death that her executors or the landlord could terminate the tenancy by giving not less than one month's notice. The tenant sought to acquire the freehold under Leasehold Reform Act 1967s1(1) and s1AA. The respondent landlord (G) disputed this right as the lease was not a long tenancy and fell within the exception in s3(1)(b)of the1967 Act that a notice period of not more than three months applied to the lease being terminated after the tenant's death. Although the original judge held that S was entitled to acquire the freehold, his decision was overturned on appeal. CA dismissed S's appeal.
