Simple English definitions for legal terms

cesser

Read a random definition: aetas legitima

A quick definition of cesser:

Cesser refers to a tenant who has not paid rent or performed the required services, which gives the landowner the right to take back the land. It can also mean the end of a right or interest. For example, a long-term agreement may have a proviso of cesser, which means it will end when a certain event happens. This term was commonly used in the past for settlements that secured portions or annuities, and the term would end when the trusts were satisfied or the annuitant died.

A more thorough explanation:

Cesser refers to two different things:

  1. In the past, a cesser was a tenant who didn't pay rent or do what they were supposed to do. This gave the landowner the right to take back the land. It was also called a cessor or cessure.
  2. A cesser is also when a right or interest ends. For example, if someone has a long-term lease on a property, there might be a proviso of cesser that says the lease will end if a certain event happens.

Examples:

  • Example 1: In the 1800s, if a farmer didn't pay their rent, they could become a cesser and lose their land.
  • Example 2: When John's parents died, he inherited their house. But there was a proviso of cesser that said if he didn't live in the house for at least six months out of the year, the house would go to his sister instead.

Example 1 shows how a cesser was a tenant who didn't do what they were supposed to do. Example 2 shows how a proviso of cesser can be used to make sure a property is used in a certain way.

Sent in my transcript at 6 am today and it’s processing. Think it will be processed before lsac closes tmrw?

I would say it is a toss up, for how much LSAC charges us for everything they are extremely efficient in processing and sending stuff out BUT with a 30% uptake in applicants and the holidays it may be significantly slower unless it is ran through and processed by a computer program. Even if it takes them longer to process it, not like there is anyone at a school to request and review it after LSAC does their thing
Do we know if any of the t14 open at all this week
just called Fordham. they said there will be decisions going out today
so congratulations on pre xmas waves
