Occupier's Liability Notice

Occupier's Liability Notice, the notice which the owner of land out of which tithe rent-charge issues is required, by sub-s. 6 of s. 2 of the Tithe Act, 1891, to give to the owner of the tithe rent-charge of the liability of the occupier of the land, under a contract made before the Act, to pay such tithe rent-charge to such owner of land. Unless this notice (which is styled an 'occupier's liability notice' by r. 3 of the Tithe Rent-charge Recovery Rules, 1891) is served as required by the Tithe Act, 1891, the landowner may not recover from the occupier any sum which he has paid for tithe rent-charge, without a certificate from the County Court 'that there was good and sufficient cause for the failure to give such notice, and that the occupier has not been prejudiced thereby.' For form of notice, see Thring's Tithe Act, 1891 p. 58, and now, generally, the (English) Tithe Act, 1936 (26 Geo. 5 & 1 Edw. 8, c. 43), s. 20(3) (Transitional Provisions)....

Run with the land-Run with the reversion

Run with the land-Run with the reversion. A covenant is said to 'run with the land,' either leased or conveyed in fee, when either the liability to perform it, or the right to take advantage of it, passes to the assignee of that land. A covenant is said to 'run with the reversion' to land leased when either the liability to perform it, or the right to take advantage of it, passes to the assignee of that reversion. Consult Spencer's case, (1583) 1 Sm LC 1, where a list of the covenants running with the land and not so running is given; and see, too, Woodfall, L & T.; Dyson v.

S. 58 of the Conveyanc...

The Housing Act, 1936 (26 Geo. 5, and 1 Edw. 8, c. 51), replaces with amendments the Housing Acts, 1925, 1930 and 1935, and consolidates the general law on the subject with some exceptions, chiefly relating to agricultural populations and needs, which are also provided for in unrepeated portions of the Acts of 1930 and 1935. Very wide powers are conferred on local authorities over the ownership of land and housing properties, and populations within their districts, enabling those authorities to make bye-laws for houses occupied or adaptable for the working classes; to effect the clearance, demolition, rebuilding, redevelopment or improvement of houses either singly or in whole areas and other-wise regulating sites or houses; to prevent over-crowding, and generally making it incumbent on these authorities to review and provide for the housing conditions of the working classes, and in addition giving powers of compulsory expropria-tion of private owners fr...
