Lease and release
Lease and release, a mode of conveyance which derived its effect from the Statute of Uses, compounded of a lease for a year at Common Law, or a bargain and sale for a year under the Statute of Uses, and a Common Law Release. This compound conveyance originated thus: The Statute of Enrolments (27 Hen. 8, c. 16) seemed to be confined to cases where an estate of inheritance or freehold, or the use thereof, was to be made or take effect by reason only of a bargain and sale; it was therefore concluded that if a bargain and sale were first made for an estate less than freehold, as for one year, and then the inheritance or freehold were superadded by a separate deed of release, the transaction could not be affected by the statute;and that such release to the bargainee would be valid, without his entry upon the lands, as a consequence of the strong words in the Statute of Uses which converts all vested uses at once into legal estates. The convenience and general applicability of the lease ad r...
