Re-entry

Re-entry, the resuming or retaking that possession which one has lately foregone. A clause of this nature, called a 'proviso for re-entry,' is inserted in every properly drawn lease, empowering the lessor to re-enter upon the demised premises if the rent is in arrear for a certain period, e.g., twenty-one days, or if there shall be any breach of the lessee's covenants. A proviso for re-entry, strictly speaking, is only applicable to corporeal hereditaments; see Sitwell v. Londesborough (Earl of), (1905) 1 Ch 465. A proviso for re-entry for breach of covenant has been denounced by a judge of the greatest eminence as 'a most odious stipulation', Hodgkinson v. Crowe, (1875) LR 10 Ch 626, per Sir Wm. James, L.J., but in practice is certainly common enough. A proviso confined to the case of non-payment of rent is a 'usual' stipulation: see Re Anderton, (1890) 45 Ch D 476. A lease under the Settled Land Act, 1882, must contain a condition of re-entry on the rent not being paid within a speci...


Res judicata

Res judicata, a final judgment already decided between the same parties or their privies on the same question by a legally constituted Court having jurisdiction is conclusive between the parties, and the issue cannot be raised again. The judgment may have been given by a foreign Court, Tarleton v. Tarleton, 4 M&S 21. A matter which is res judicata cannot be further gone into; but if the decision was obtained by fraud it can be set aside, Cole v. Langford, (1898) 2 QB 36. Criminal proceedings do not constitute a res judicata as regards civil proceedings arising out of the same facts, Caione v. Palace Shipping Co., (1907) 1 KB 670; and see also Anderson v. Collinson, (1901) 2 KB 107. See ESTOPPEL.When it is said that a previous decision is res judicata, it is meant that the right claimed has been adjudicated upon and cannot again be placed in contest between the same parties. A previous decision of a competent Court on fact which are the foundation of the right and the relevant law appli...


Re-development areas

Re-development areas. By ss. 34 et seq. of the (English) Housing Act, 1936, a local authority may acquire an area of land by agreement or compulsorily for houses for the working classes if after an inspection for the purposes of detecting overcrowding under s. 1 of the Act or otherwise the authority is satisfied that the area contains fifty or more working class houses, of which at least one-third are overcrowded or unfit for human habitation, and that the industrial and social conditions of the district are such that the area should be used for working-class houses and that the area should be re-developed as a whole for their accommodation. The authority must in those conditions prepare a re-development plan by reference to a map to be submitted to the Minister of Health for approval, and the Minister must hold a public inquiry if there is any objection, before giving or withholding or modifying the plan; in any other case approval may be given, qualified or withheld at the Minister''...
