Course Description

Land Law-I introduces students to basic elements of land law by focusing upon multiple dimensions of land, the primary concepts of estates and tenure, and the idea of property. The course sustains this theoretical engagement with an elementary study of notions of possession and titles. The second part of the course presents a practical approach by focusing on legal rules that apply respectively to freehold and leasehold ownerships of land. The course covers relevant issues of freehold covenants; of rights and duties of landlords and tenants; and concludes with a study of entitlements which may be acquired over other people's lands such as easements and profits à prendre.
