Alienate
|
|
AlienateTo sell or give completely and without reserve; to transfer title to somebody else. A voluntary conveyance of property, especially real property.
RELATED TERMS--------------------------------------
Without
Pleading. This word is adopted in formal traverses, and is a negative signifying "and not for;" accordingly the language of the elder entries sometimes is, It et nemy pur tiel cause.
Transfer
Contracts The act by which the owner of a thing delivers it to another person, with the intent of passing the rights which he has in it to the latter.
Title
1) Estates. A title is defined by Lord Coke to be the means whereby the owner of lands hath the just possession of his property. 2) Legislation That part of an act of the legislature by which it is known, and distinguished from other acts the name of the act. 3) Rights. The name of a newwpaper a book, and the like.
Voluntary
Willingly; done with one's consent; negligently.
Conveyance
A written document which transfers property from one person to another. In real-estate law, the conveyance usually refers to the actual document which transfers ownership, between persons living (i.e. other than by will), or which charges the land with another's interest, such as a mortgage.
Property
Property is commonly thought of as a thing which belongs to someone and over which a person has total control. But, legally, it is more properly defined as a collection of legal rights over a thing. These rights are usually total and fully enforceable by the state or the owner against others. It has been said that "property and law were born and die together. Before laws were made there was no property. Take away laws and property ceases." before laws were written and enforced, property had no relevance. Possession was all that mattered. There are many classifications of property, the most common being between real property or immoveable property (real estate such as land or buildings) and "chattel", or "moveable" (things which are not attached to the land such as a bicycle, a car or a hammer) and between public (property belonging to everybody or to the state) and private property.
Real
1) A term which is applied to land in its most enlarged signification. Real security, therefore, means the security of mortgages or other incumbrances affecting lands. 2) In the civil law, real has not the same meaning as it has in the common law. There it signifies what relates to a thing, whether it be movable or immovable, lands or goods; thus, a real injury is one which is done to a thing, as a trespass to property, whether it be real or personal in the common law sense. A real statute is one which relates to a thing, in contradistinction to such as relate to a person.
