en fief taillé

OBS: en fief taillé : terme normalisé par le Comité de normalisation dans le cadre du Programme national de l'administration de la justice dans les deux langues officielles (PAJLO).

OBS: As in the case of the fee simple, at common law the rules for the creation of the estate tail had to be strictly observed in the case of ""inter vivos"" dispositions. In the case of wills the rules were more relaxed. ... In England, these rules were very much simplified by the ""Conveyancing and Law of Property Act"". This legislation was adopted in the Canadian provinces. The several statutes provided in effect that, in a deed limiting an estate tail, it was no longer necessary to use the words ""heirs of the body"" ..., it being sufficient to use the words ""in tail"" ... or to use words sufficiently indicating the limitation intended. (Anger and Honsberger, 2nd ed., 1985, pp. 134-5).
