CHAP. XXXI. FEOFFMENTS.
A Feoffment, is an estate made by delivery of Possession, and seizin by the party, or his sufficient Attorney.
A man cannot make livery of seizin, before he have the Possession.
A Joynt-Tenant cannot enfeoffe his Compani∣on.
A Co-partner make a Feoffment of his part, or release.
A man cannot enfeoffe his Wife.
A Disseizor cannot enfeoffe the Dsseizee; for his entrie is lawfull upon the disseizor.
Such persons as have possession in lands for yeers, or for life, &c. cannot take by livery and seizin of the same Lands.
IF a Feoffment be made, and the Lessee for years give leave to the Lessor to make Livery and seizin of the Premisses, saving to himself his Lease, &c. and he doth, the terme is not surrendred; for the Lessee had an Interest which could not be surrendred without his consent to surrender, & here his intent to surrender doth not appear; where∣fore he may enter, & have his term & the rent is renewed,
