quasi-seisin

Read a random definition: libel of accusation

A quick definition of quasi-seisin:

Quasi-seisin is when a person has possession of land, but the ownership belongs to someone else, like a lord or a copyholder. It's like borrowing something from a friend, but they still own it. In the past, seisin meant possession and ownership of land, but now it usually means the same thing as ownership.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Quasi-seisin is a type of possession of lands where the freehold possession is in the lord, and the copyholder has possession of the lands. It is also known as customary seisin.

Example: In feudal times, a lord would grant a copyholder the right to possess and use a piece of land. The copyholder would have quasi-seisin of the land, meaning they had possession and use of the land, but the lord still owned the freehold possession of the land.

Explanation: This example illustrates how quasi-seisin works in a feudal system. The copyholder has possession of the land, but the lord still owns the land. The copyholder's possession is limited to their lifetime or the terms of their agreement with the lord. Quasi-seisin is a type of possession that is not full ownership, but rather a limited right to use and possess the land.
