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...

Declaration of trust
Declaration of trust. To prevent the inconvenience which arose from parol declarations and secret transfers of uses, s. 53 of the (English) Law of Property Act, 1925, reproducing and amending the (English) Statute of Frauds (29 Car. 2, c. 3), ss. 7, 8 and 9, requires that a declaration of trust respecting any land or any interest therein must be manifested and proved by some writing signed by some person who is able to declare such trust, or by his will, and (1) a disposition of an equitable interest or trust, subsisting at the time of the disposition, must be in writing signed by the person disposing of the same or by his agent thereunto lawfully authorized in writing or by will; (2) this section does not affect the creation of resulting, implied or constructive trusts.It appears that this statute does not extend to the declaration or creation of trusts of mere personalty. But in practice, a parol declaration should never be relied on, for the intention to declare a trust should be ir...
