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.

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...
