Hi, Sorry, I can't on that.
Brian -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of ValerieD Sent: 24 August 2010 10:34 To: FE-1 Study Group Subject: Re: Contract Law Hi Brian, Could you give me some tips on landlaw? what to leave out etc? i'm working off a griffith manual that pre-dates the new act and reading up on the act at the same time to narrow it down but still a little unsure. For example, there is a chapter in my book entitled "Equity and the Doctrine of Notice" - a lot of this has to do with the Statute of Uses etc which has now been abolished. Can i leave this whole chapter out? Secondly, "Estates in Land" - can anything referring to future interests in land be left out as they exist in equity only and the Fee Tail has been abolished. Then theres a chapter on "Future Interests", "Settled Land" and "Rules against Remoteness" which i intended leaving out also as per changes under the new act. Easements and Covenants have been changed also - can i leave these out too? Sorry for the long email, any help at all would be appreciated!
