|
|
PartownersPersons who hold real or personal property by the same title, either as tenants in common, joint tenants, or coparceners.

RELATED TERMS--------------------------------------
Hold
To decide, adjudge, decree. Whence also freehold and leasehold. "Holding", relating to ownership in property, embraces two idea: actual possession of some subject of property, and being invested with the legal title. It may be applied to anything the subject of property, in law or in equity.
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.
Personal
Belonging to the person.
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.
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.
Common
marriage law. a marriage in which no formal ceremony took place and no license exists.
Joint
United, not separate; as, joint action, or one which is brought by several persons acting together; joint bond, a bond given by two or more obligors.
Coparceners
Estates. Persons on whom lands of inheritance descend from their ancestor.
Partners
Contracts. Persons who have united together and formed a partnership. 2. Every person sui juris is competent to contract the relation of a partner. An infant may by law be a partner; but a feme covert, not being capable of contracting, cannot enter into partnership; and altbough married women are not unfrequently entitled to shares in banking houses, and other mercantile concerns, under positive covenants, yet when this happens, their hushands are entitled to such shares, and become partners in their steads. Whether a feme sole trader in Pennsylvania could enter into such contract, seems not settled.
Each
Every one of the two or more composing the whole.
Undivided
That which is held by the same title by two or more persons, whether their rights are equal, as to value or quantity, or unequal.
Interest
1) Estates. The right which a man has in a chattel real, and more particularly in a future term. It is a word of less efficacy and extent than estates, though, in legal understanding, an interest extends to estates, rights and titles which a man has in or out of lands, so that by a grant of his whole interest in land, a reversion as well as the fee simple shall pass. 2) Contracts. The right of property which a man has in a thing, commonly called insurable interest. 3) Evidence. The benefit which a person has in the matter about to be decided and which is in issue between the parties.
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.
Relation
1) Civil law. The report which the judges made of the proceedings in certain suits to the prince were so called. 2) Contracts, construction. When an act is done at one time, and it operates upon the thing as if done at another time, it is said to do so by relation.
Share
A portion of anything. Sometimes shares are equal, at other times they are unequal.
Several
A state of separation or partition. A several agreement or cove-nant, is one entered into by two or more persons separately, each binding himself for the whole; a several action is one in which two or more persons are separately charged; a several inheritance, is one conveyed so as to descend, or come to two persons separately by moieties. Several is usually opposed to joint.
Right
1) Sometimes it signifies a law, as when we say that natural right requires us to keep our promises, or that it commands restitution, or that it forbids murder. In our language it is seldom used in this sense. 2) It sometimes means that quality in our actions by which they are denominated just ones. This is usually denominated rectitude. 3) It is that quality in a person by which he can do certain actions, or possess certain things which belong to him by virtue of some title. In this sense, we use it when we say that a man has a right to his estate or a right to defend himself.
