The Law of Property Act 1925: a course on the Act for property litigators
To commemorate the centenary of the passage of the Law of Property Act 1925, Falcon Chambers will be presenting a series of monthly articles which are intended to help practitioners understand a range of important, but often overlooked, parts of the 1925 Act which remain highly relevant to day-to-day practice in property law.
The intention is to assist anyone practising in property litigation, at whatever level of seniority, to feel more confident in navigating the Act and understanding its now century-old provisions and often centuries-old concepts.
To that end, in a series of monthly articles throughout this year, Falcon Chambers’ team of specialist barristers will hone in on particular sections, or groups of sections, of the Act, explaining the purpose of their enactment, their subsequent judicial interpretation, any ongoing ambiguities and their practical relevance to practitioners. We will cover those parts of the Act concerning:
- Overreaching
- The running of leasehold covenants
- Capacity
- Vendor and purchaser summonses and deposits
- Equitable charges and charging orders
- Mortgages
- Rentcharges
- Dealings with reversions
- Dissolution of corporations
- Rights over common land.
