Book Description

Excerpt from A Treatise on the Law of Renewals in Respect to Leases for Lives Renewable for Ever in Ireland, With the Cases and Decisions Thereon: Including an Extensive Report of the Important and Heretofore Unpublished Case of Fitzsimon V. Burton; Also the Cases in Respect to the Renewals of Ecclesiastical Leases in Ireland, With Tables for the Calculation of Fines When the tenant is unknown, or there be a diffi culty in discovering who the tenant is, a particular 'form of substituted notice is given by the statute; and it is considered by Lord Redesdale an omission in the act of parliament that some similar facility has not been afforded, where the tenant is at a distance or out of Ireland, or even where the landlord may be at a dis tance or out of Ireland, to effect service upon the te nant without the necessity of a special messenger, the expense of which may exceed the amount of the fine to be demanded. So long however as the law remains as it is, its rules must be collected from the latest deci sions, and those of the court of dernier resort must be taken as paramount to all others; and the rule in this particular is now established to be, that personal de mand is not essential, although it is always desirable, because a court of Equity will never act upon it unless the court have good grounds to be persuaded that the tenant received the notice, although there may not be direct evidence to that effect.
