Yes it does. The support class in the Jini Kit handles the Leasing for you 
(both client and server side).
However, even in non-JINI, in RMI there is a remote garbage collector that 
will release references to the Remote objects (I think the default is 2 
minutes, otherwise 10 ).
If you use other network protocols, you will need to attend to this somehow...
