disseisor

This instance, therefore, comes very near that of a disseisor.

The Common Law Oliver Wendell Holmes 1888

Chief Justice of England under Henry VII., says, "If I am disseised of a manor, and the tenants pay their rent to the disseisor, and then I re-enter, I shall not have the back rent of my tenants which they have paid to my disseisor, but the disseisor shall pay for all in trespass or assize."

The Common Law Oliver Wendell Holmes 1888

A disseisor would get a new and different fee, and would not have the estate of which the rent was part.

The Common Law Oliver Wendell Holmes 1888

/1/But he is not speaking of what the rights of a disseisor would be as against one not having a better title, and he immediately adds that they are rights over a corporeal object belonging to a corporeal object.

The Common Law Oliver Wendell Holmes 1888

/4/There cannot be a doubt that a disseisor would have been bound equally with one whose possession was lawful.

The Common Law Oliver Wendell Holmes 1888

So a disseisor, abator, intruder, or the lord by escheat, &c., shall have them as things annexed to the land

The Common Law Oliver Wendell Holmes 1888

/1/Nevertheless, if the tenant recognized him, the disseisor would be protected as against persons who could not show a better title.

The Common Law Oliver Wendell Holmes 1888

If it went with the land in one case, even into the hands of a disseisor, it must have gone with it in the other.

The Common Law Oliver Wendell Holmes 1888

But if it does not recognize it until a right is acquired, then the protection of a disseisor in the use of an easement must still be explained by a reference to the facts mentioned in the Lecture referred to.

The Common Law Oliver Wendell Holmes 1888

A disseisor was no more bound by the confidence reposed in his disseisee, than he was entitled to vouch his disseisee's warrantor.
